Silence In My Heart
SILENCE IN MY HEART
BY MICHELLE MORRIS
I can't believe we're over;
My mind is struggling to
Comprehend.
All those nights we spent in
Our own heaven;
Make it difficult to sink in.
So I know I have to move on;
Without you and be strong;
Despite the missing you part,
So acute inside my heart.
Chorus
Yeah, I packed up all my feelings for you;
Put them in a chest and locked it tight;
Walked around the empty rooms;
The silence in my heart
In echoes heard.
(End Chorus)
But moving on isn't a straight road,
On a map to heart's freedom;
It's dark and has twists and turns,
That can cause a lot of friction burn.
And you might find yourself alone,
Stuck in a foreign place,
That aching, yearning pull;
Of cognitive dissonance.
Because even when
You're sure about leaving,
You might regret it -
Once you find the
Grass isn't always greener.
Chorus
