No air to breathe
No place to go
The silent one
Looks for a home
No one to listen
No one to see
Just how much
The deaf one can hear
Coolness fills it's lungs
Freezing the air ways
It's suffocating
But nothing more can be done
It's scratching it's clawing
It's biting at the walls
The chain is then pulled back
And it's dragged down further
A blurred perception
A blurred reality
Where the outgoing goes silent
And the listener becomes deaf
You mistook it
So many times
Now it tries to get out
But it's suffocated by lies
Aquantience or Friend
Family or Lover
It fooled them all
Aren't you proud?
It's only until
The mask falls off
That it's lungs finally give out
That you realize just who it was they were killing

No air to breathe
No place to go
The silent one
Looks for a home
No one to listen
No one to see
Just how much
The deaf one can hear
Coolness fills it's lungs
Freezing the air ways
It's suffocating
But nothing more can be done
It's scratching it's clawing
It's biting at the walls
The chain is then pulled back
And it's dragged down further
A blurred perception
A blurred reality
Where the outgoing goes silent
And the listener becomes deaf
You mistook it
So many times
Now it tries to get out
But it's suffocated by lies
Aquantience or Friend
Family or Lover
It fooled them all
Aren't you proud?
It's only until
The mask falls off
That it's lungs finally give out
That you realize just who it was they were killing
