Silent Screams


When I wake up in the morning and I’m thinking which way’s best
To throw myself off buildings to land nicely on my head
It might be time to rethink the direction of my path
Take back control of the black hole that’s swallowing my heart

||: In a glass box staring out
My words fall silent all around and
You can’t hear me scream for help
My mouth unmoving drowns me out :||

The pain deep in my chest I feel is like a spreading vine
Reaching out it’s tendrils like a cancer in my mind
Black like tar and thick like blood seeps in to every vein
Fighting feels so futile when it’s paired with spreading shame
All the failure of my past and on it goes through everything
The failure in the path I walk, that voice of treason on it sings
I can’t seem to block it out; I’m lost, I’m lonely, on my own
The hissing bile it always spouts, I am nothing, voices groan

||: In a glass box staring out
My words fall silent all around and
You can’t hear me scream for help
My mouth unmoving drowns me out :||

||: I’m trapped inside a glass box
I’m trapped inside this box
And you can’t hear me screaming
Because nothing’s coming out
I’m trapped inside a glass box
And i’m calling out your name
But the silence keeps on falling
While I can’t escape my shame :||
