The deafening silence
The screaming thoughts.
Armour from a battle,
Scars from a war.

Can anyone hear
the words she says?
Can anyone find
The heart she misplaced?

Trapped in a zone
Where there's nowhere to run.
Everything is slipping
With the setting sun.

Falling deeper and deeper
Into an empty space.
What can you tell me,
About the devil she embraced?

He stripped her dignity,
Left her to die.
Tell me,
Why is she not able to cry?

He says he loves her
But hurts her so.
She smiles to cover it,
Her scars never show.

Time goes by,
Things don't change.
She's defined,
By the walls she's made.

Built so high,
Won't let anyone in.
You can try and try,
But I'll never be
That girl again...
