Silent Symphony
I'm feeling locked inside
I'm shouting without a word
Nothing to be spoken
Nothing to be heard
No one here to listen
To my silent symphony
Nobody to sing along
No one here but me
I still don't know what's wrong
Or even what to say
I don't know what depresses me
I can't go another day
Waiting for the time to pass
But will it ever move?
Will my life continue
Down here in the gloom
Or will it rise above this?
Up above the pain
Is this a tearful cycle
Or a level in a game
Still I just don't know
Why am I even here?
What is the point to living
Will I ever understand?
Do I need to stay here
If I am just a blink
A small moment in time
Nothing much to think
Why is leaving such a sin?
Why must I cling along
I just need to understand
What verse I'm at; what song
Will it ever brighten?
Will it ever change
Will I find my meaning
Will I find my range
For now I'm singing by myself
Without knowing the words
Cause in this silent symphony
I never will be heard.
