Loud Silence - Benedictum

Here I go again

Let the games begin

I can’t seem to see the forest for the trees

As it slips away no more words to say

The illusion of we

Can no longer be

One life given selflessly

One breath drawn in ecstasy

Loud silence

Victim of no words, love lies on the floor

Loud silence

Speaks to me, every word you didn’t say is

Screaming unspoken

In a gilded cage

While my youth it fades

As a captive I breathe

Will I ever be free?

And these wounds I feel

Will they ever heal?

What have I sacrificed

For an easier life?

One tear in an endless sea

Cold fear of what’s unknown to me

One life given selflessly

One breath drawn in ecstasy

Loud silence

Victim of no words, love lies on the floor

Loud silence

Speaks to me, every word you didn’t say is

Screaming unspoken

One tear in an endless sea

Cold fear of what’s unknown to me

One life given selflessly

One breath drawn in ecstasy

Loud silence

Victim of no words, love lies on the floor

Loud silence

Speaks to me every word you didn’t say is

Screaming unspoken

Loud, no, give me strength just to walk out the door

Every single word
