Verse 1
The crowd howling outside
My doubts spin in my mind
I tried to keep them all inside
But now, they know
They know my deepest fears
My thoughts my pain my tears
And if they scream or if they cheer
They'll never get to me
Prechorus 1
Now I'm free (free)
I'm standing here
Doesn't matter what you want
Let the thunder rage on
And now I'm free (free)
I'm standing here
Doesn't matter what you say
My music's gonna play
Chorus 1
The silence doesn't bother me
The silence doesn't bother me (today)
The silence didn't bother me (yesterday)
The silence never bothered me (anyway)
Verse 2
There is no right or wrong
The rules for me are gone
Put all my heart into my songs
My true colors show
I don't care what they say
Won't let them change my ways
Won't take it even one more day
You'll never get to me
Prechorus 2
Now I'm free (free)
I'm standing here
Doesn't matter what you want
Let the thunder rage on, and on
And now I'm free (free)
I'm standing here
Doesn't matter what you say
My music's gonna play
Chorus 2
The silence doesn't bother me
The silence doesn't bother me (today)
The silence didn't bother me (yesterday)
The silence never bothered me (anyway)
Bridge
(Free)
I will rise up, much stronger than ever
I will never stand down, no never, no never
I will rise up, much stronger than ever
I will never stand down, no never, no never
I will rise up, much stronger than ever
I will never stand down, no never, no never
I will rise up, much stronger than ever
I will never stand down, no never, NEVER!
Chorus 3
The silence doesn't bother me
The silence doesn't bother me (today)
The silence didn't bother me (yesterday)
The silence never bothered me (anyway)
The silence doesn't bother me
The silence doesn't bother me (today)
The silence didn't bother me (yesterday)
The silence never bothered me (anyway)
