Speak in silence
to calm my mind
Avert the step
that leaves me
blind
You lack the
face
that shows
compassion
Acting on
untrained
reactions
(ch)
I hear you
I feel you
taking over
another part of me
I see you
and fear you
waking up the
demons inside me
I held your
secrets
I took your hand
Expected nothing
(which was)
just as well and
trading parties
with warring
minds
couldn't help
you past
to see the signs
(bridge)
Keep your voice
down
Keep the noise
down
Don't disturb me
when I'm screaming
Keep your voice
down
There's too much
noise now
It interferes
with rational thinking
Bled in darkness
Scarred in mind
A product of
the most unkind
the most
unwanted
the most
maligned
Forgotten here
and left behind
