I stayed silent again tonight,<br />My words tangled deep inside,<br />While my heart silently cried,<br />Who should I tell my sorrow, who will confide?<br /><br />Everything’s been said, long over and done,<br />But there’s an emptiness left inside.<br />The words have scattered, all gone,<br />In my loneliness, the same wound I hide.<br /><br />I stayed silent again tonight,<br />Letters gathered in my sight,<br />Maybe words are too weak for the fight,<br />Silence told it all, hidden out of sight.<br /><br />I took one more step forward,<br />But the roads always led me back.<br />Time stood still, never moved onward,<br />And my dreams followed in its track.<br /><br />I stayed silent again tonight,<br />Words drown deep without light,<br />If I take one more step out of fright,<br />Will this silence finally end, will it feel right?<br /><br />Every sound’s an echo, a trace,<br />But I’m lost in this quiet space.<br />All I seek is one embrace,<br />Maybe it’s hidden in a forgotten place.<br /><br />I stayed silent again tonight,<br />The roads are gone, answers hidden tight,<br />Yet a hope still lingers in my heart’s flight,<br />Even in silence, a scream might ignite.
