silent scream
lying awake,
trying not to breathe.
i hear what you're saying,
still it's hard to believe.
reaching for someone,
but it's not me.
i know you love him,
cause you've been talking
in your sleep.
telling secrets you've been
trying to keep,
don't know who he is,
but he's the man of your dreams.
you say you're satisfied,
and he makes you feel complete.
i know you're telling the truth,
cause you've been talking in your
sleep.
the voice i heard,
needed to be set free.
cause i can see in your eyes
you're thinking of him,
while looking at me.
no confession necessary,
i offer a reprieve.
i know where i stand,
cause you've been talking
in your sleep.
trying not to breathe.
i hear what you're saying,
still it's hard to believe.
