Don't say you know sympathy
What's that but a word?
Don't say you'll be kind to me
Be honest with me first
The lonely nights are filled
With thoughts of intrusion
And days shed no light
What am I to do
But come to the conclusion
Without me you'll be alright
I am not known if I'm not seen or heard
A silence that is screamed across the Earth
No shaking hands to guide us through our worst
Behind closed doors to hide us from the world
The cold wind carries me tonight
A whisper barely heard
I've screamed it almost every night
To ears that won't know my hurt
You'll find me on my knees
The stoic mask removed
Still out of sight
The safety that we seek
Is stuck behind your crude
And cowardly sense of mind
I am not known if I'm not seen or heard
A silence that is screamed across the Earth
No shaking hands to guide us through our worst
Behind closed doors to hide us from the world
Would you stand with me
Would you comfort me
If you saw me there
Would you stand and stare
I'm not afraid of what I will become
I'm not afraid of what I will become
