The deafening roar of silence
The deafening roar of silence
when silence leaves me deaf
I shall cover up with music
Music is my escape
Its the place i feel safe
I listen to music when the silence is too loud
For the silence
Is deafening
My ears bleed from the roar
So i put on my headphones
And escape the pain
Music allows me to get away
Even if only for a small while
For nothing lasts forever
Songs will be lost
Along side people
So i enjoy the music while its here
For you never know
When the day will come
When i can no longer cover the silence
For the ones that are silent have burdens nobody can ever understand
So when i am silent and lost in thought
Just know my sanity has sought
Redemption
For when i listen to the silence
It roars with its sharp maw
For the silence knows im on the edge
And its my biggest nightmare
To see the silence win
For i know not even the strongest wills last forever
And i fear the day when it roars and i cant ignore it
