Price of Silence

Price of Silence

Nightmares in dreams

Wake up screaming save me from myself

Cowards live when we don’t scream  

Bullies behind a pulpit of hate

Price of the silence to silence me

I’m a tree Redwood against the crowd

Can’t silence me in my dreams

I’m fucking woke up I’m an iceberg

Chasing me I can’t sleep in my dreams

The price of silence is immense

Cowards hide behind the quiet

On keyboards typewriter bully

Pull back the shade show you a coward

Born to hate and search out

Darkest depths of our beings

They have no love what it’s all about

Die in chat rooms and Minecraft games

Hiding behind the mask of the internet

Silence begins because no one screams

They’re empty vessels dying cheap thrills
