I'm scared of the silence Lately I distrust my thoughts I don't like the voices in my head That finds the confidence to speak up during the lateness of nights I think the only reason I keep listening to John Mayer Is because when he sings about the troubles I am facing He sings in a melody that makes me confuse the ugliness of myself For ocean waves and spring birds His soft tenor creates an illusion of a truthful beauty When in reality no truths are beautiful All those who are honest are usually lonely No one wants to be told the truth because They can't handle it No one wants to acknowledge something they can't handle And no one Should be forced to listen to their thoughts when it speaks of truths That have yet been masked by the Soft strings of the fender stratocaster Mayer cradles as he Pours out ballads of lonely nights and broken loves The biggest flaw about being human Is the ability to feel for everything It weakens the soul
