The Silence
Sometimes I go crazy
Because there's so much silence around
Thoughts running through everyone's heads
But nothing coming out
Breaking the concentration
Everything's like it was
Things are no longer gone
But still disappearing
And sometimes I go crazy
Because I can't take the silence
So many unsaid words
That could probably help
Hide nothing inside
And then things will be all right
But when worlds slip through the cracks
And silence takes over
Sometimes the walls cave in on you
And you go crazy
