SILENCE IS GOLDEN

"If I am silent, I am not real
and if i speak up then
no one will hear
if i wear a mask there's
somewhere to hide

Silence is golden
I have been broken
safe in my own skin
nobody wins

If I raise my voice will
someone get hurt?
and if I can't feel then
I won't get touched
If no truths are spoken then
no lies can hide

Silence is golden
I have been broken
safe in my own skin
nobody wins
Silence is golden
nobody gets it
safe in my own skin
nobody wins

Did you hear me speak?
Do you understand?
Did you hear my voice?
Would you hold my hand?
Do you understand me?

Won't someone listen?
nobody gets it
my body is a temple
but nothing is simple
Silence is golden
I have been broken
something was stolen
safe in my own skin!

Safe in my own skin
won't someone listen?
my body is a temple
but nothing is simple
My body is a temple
but nothing is simple
something was stolen
I have been broken

I have been broken
Silence is golden
I have been broken
safe in my own skin."
