Silence Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hold you anger in your stomach kid
Ignore the shit they're whispering
He took more than your innocence
They blamed it on your ignorance
Most broken parts don't leave a bruise
They pull the rug out from your youth
Can't take back what he did to you
So he wins

[Chorus]
Oh my my
Oh my my
He still falls asleep just fine
Your dreams stay violent
Oh my my
Oh my my
Healing's only friend is time
They said "you're lying"
Oh my my
Oh my my
Ghosts still haunt in morning light
You scream, they're quiet

[Post-Chorus]
Nothing hurts like silence
Nothing hurts like
[Verse ]
Hold your anger in your stomach kid
Ignore the hole you're sinking in
And let you live and medicate the things your mind just can't erase
Cause bandages just won't fix the wound
Somebody else's gift to you
The memories make you bulletproof 'til they hit

[Chorus]
Oh my my
Oh my my
He still falls asleep just fine
Your dreams stay violent
Oh my my
Oh my my
Healing's only friend is time
They said "you're lying"
Oh my my
Oh my my
Ghosts still haunt in morning light
You scream, they're quiet

[Post-Chorus]
Nothing hurts like silence
Nothing hurts like
[Chorus]
Oh my my
Oh my my
He still falls asleep just fine
Your dreams stay violent
Oh my my
Oh my my
Healing's only friend is time
They said "you're lying"
Oh my my
Oh my my
Ghosts still haunt in morning light
You scream, they're quiet

[Outro]
Nothing hurts like silence

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
