Silence Speaks Too

I won't wake up to the constant ringing of the doorbell… I ignore I woke up on the wrong side of the bed, looking like hell, Once more It's too hard to recognize your soft voice In the chaos of my family's music choice You used to do such dumb things to me You accused me of being the fool too, I see Days and weeks pass us by And I try and I try and I try To understand your point of view I am truly confused just like you Months and years go on by And I cry and I cry and I cry Out your name in the darkness You don't hear my lonely distress I'm the silence amongst the crowd I'm the silence that won't speak aloud But silence speaks too… I don't want to hear your complaints about me all day and night Change is a challenging chore I won't let the sun shine down on me as I sweat a storm with fright Open up the opportunity door It's too hard to recognize your soft voice In the chaos of my family's music choice You used to do such dumb things to me You accused me of being the fool too, I see Days and weeks pass us by And I try and I try and I try To understand your point of view I am truly confused just like you Months and years go on by And I cry and I cry and I cry Out your name in the darkness You don't hear my lonely distress I'm the silence amongst the crowd I'm the silence that won't speak aloud But silence speaks too… I silently shower upon me radiant relief From this squalid grief...this cruel grief… You should have heard me out in the brink of my unfailing demise You laugh at me cuz you don't know the truth behind your lies And I cry and I cry and I cry Out your name in the darkness You don't hear my lonely distress I'm the silence amongst the crowd I'm the silence that won't speak aloud And I cry and I cry and I cry Out your name in the darkness You don't hear my lonely distress I'm the silence amongst the crowd I'm the silence that won't speak aloud And I try and I try and I try To understand your point of view I am truly confused just like you Know that my silence speaks too...
