how can silence be so loud?
i can hardly stand it, i want to put on a record and turn it all the way up.
i want to plug my guitar in and crank the amp the whole way and just play one chord.
i want to scream out, curse the day, feel the echo from my voice hit off the walls and come back to me.

i want to stop keeping everything so quiet, i want to stop saving the fights for when you feel like it, and i want you to open your ******* mouth instead of sitting quietly waiting for me to be ready to fight.
