A Life Once Lost - Silence lyrics

Only when I speak to myself Is when the real Substantial conversations Flow together Words travel gently off my tongue I leave myself speechless Thoughts die horribly in my mind I retreat to nowhere To understand, I destroy myself These scars are here to stay Understand the rules Understand You could have taught me a lesson In believing these lies You would have tortured me longer Just to watch me die Silence is a friendly Handshake from an old friend Someone I confide in When I need a hand Silence Doesn't exist like it used too Silence
