Medulla Nocte - Deafened By The Sound Of Silence lyrics

No, not the ringing Wide awake, suffering Constant hissing-deafening Constantly, constantly Reverberate inside my skull [x4] The sound is silent, yet exhaustive It's violent, but absorbing It's calming, but annoying It's coming! Deafened by the sound of silence My fear has kept me in my place All chains are now broken And I'm ashamed to show my face And now, I've never felt so out of place No, not the ringing Head in hands, whimpering Hands are shaking, body aching Aching sounds, reverberating Reverberate inside my skull [x4] The sound is silent, yet exhaustive It's violent, but absorbing It's calming, but annoying It's coming! Deafened by the sound of silence I'm consumed within it's mist And as the ringing grows louder I feel the blade against my wrist And slowly I'm hearing the volume....increase You can call me paranoid Call me a freak But I've got to distrust everbody that I meet Made enough apolgies They're ones I retract Cos every time I turn away, I get stabbed in the back Have you gained anything with your selfishness Except my distrust and utter conceit Are you satisfied to strip me of all that I have Like the dignity I had that was stripped [repeat] The sound is silent, yet exhaustive It's violent...but supportive Reverberate inside my skull [repeat] Shut up!
