In silence I only hear my thoughts
The overcrowding of voices in my brain
The overwhelming rush of blood in my veins
I breathe deep
In silence I only hear your voice
Echoing in my head
The overcrowding feelings
Coat my heart in cement
And in the darkness I only see your memory
A faint light tethered to my heart
Beating in accordance to yours
Which used to beat alongside mine
And we were dreamers in the night
With wide ambitions and future sight
And now we're silent screamers
We're locked away
With so many opinions
and so much to say
yet my mouth is sewed shut
By the voices that play on repeat inside my head
they play and play and play and...
In the silence all I hear is you
In the silence which has become so loud
I feel lost inside this imaginary crowd

In silence I only hear my thoughts
The overcrowding of voices in my brain
The overwhelming rush of blood in my veins
I breathe deep
In silence I only hear your voice
Echoing in my head
The overcrowding feelings
Coat my heart in cement
And in the darkness I only see your memory
A faint light tethered to my heart
Beating in accordance to yours
Which used to beat alongside mine
And we were dreamers in the night
With wide ambitions and future sight
And now we're silent screamers
We're locked away
With so many opinions
and so much to say
yet my mouth is sewed shut
By the voices that play on repeat inside my head
they play and play and play and...
In the silence all I hear is you
In the silence which has become so loud
I feel lost inside this imaginary crowd
