I'll scream to break this oath of silence
sworn to keep me from
darkest corners of my mind.
A tidal wave to break the levees
I put up to promise that I'll be fine.

You were never in it
for me, only yourself.
Just a player moving a pawn.
Always saw things in pros and cons,
black and white, I am the grey.

Here I lay in the middle
of your dreams and your worst nightmare:
too good to let go, too painful to keep close.
I linger in the shadows,
so that you can be tolerant.
Took this oath of silence,
for your peace of mind.
(Because I need you more
than you've ever needed me.)

You were never in it
for me, only yourself.
Just a player moving a pawn.
Always saw things in pros and cons,
black and white, I am the grey.

I'll scream to break this oath of silence,
a tidal wave to bring down the levees.
I'll scream to bring your worst nightmares
into sight, I'll bring down the walls of your dreams.

I needed you more than you ever needed me.
