Loudest Silence

Why can’t I say How I feel inside ‘farid to tell you What I’m used to hide Secrets I keep But wish you would take Can’t you hear my silence When I’m talking loud Can’t you hear my screams When I don’t make a sound Can’t you see my tears As I smile and laugh Can;’t you see my pain ‘cause I know it hurts so bad Wish I could tell you But afraid you don’t care Wish I can show you But afraid you don’t care Wish I could show you But you’re never there Wish I could leave this Yet I stay Wish I could tell you What I need to say Wish you could hold me And tell me it will be alright Wish I wouldn’t be All alone tonight But I can’t tell you How I feel Cannot tell you my pain is real You cannot see My tears falling down ‘cause I’m afraid You’ll walk away with no sound Shhh be silent I tell myself today In case you decide to walk away By heart is broken Cannot be healed My lips are shut Can you break the seal?
