Nightmare Recap: Songs For Broken Hearts.

Stuck In Silence

Stuck In Silence

(Verse One)

They say that I'm a faker, that I just want attention.
But how else am I supposed to release all the tension?
Maybe it's a habit or maybe it's an obsession.
But how am I supposed to get over my traumatic connections?

Talk to you? Yeah, like that ever goes over well!
No one wants to understand this fresh type of hell.
They just want to steal it and then go off and sell
Putting my truth on performance is how they excel!

I guess I could try, but why should I bother?
I'll have to hide the details and act all proper.
Cause raw depression is a problem and it brings you "dishonour".
My sorrow is a joy thief and I don't wanna be a robber.

My scars, though jagged, will eventually fade.
But the memories are stubborn and will always stay.
Just like the fact you decided to betray.
When I opened up it was hate you displayed, so:

(Chorus)

Done enough trusting in my life, only felt the pain
And I'm sick and tired of playing this game.
I was fully honest, now look what you've became.
Heard your lies so many times, I'm turning insane.

Now my mind and heart are shattered like a picture frame.
My thoughts are scattered and they're all filled with shame.
This happens every time that I try to explain.
I think I'm finished with these nightmares and flames.

Stuck in this silence.

(Verse 2)

And now you're gonna walk away like everybody else,
Blab about my story as if it's your book off the shelf.
This is why I shouldn't say anything anymore!
Lock up my trauma, zip my lips and put my heart inside a drawer!

I'll Stop fighting this fight, and dragging myself through war.
There's nothing worth continuing this battle for.
So just pack your shit and leave, exit out that door!
Cause I've already done this song and dance a million times before!

It's not like you should care, it's not your business
This isn't your problem and it isn't your illness
It's my own fault anyway, I should ask for forgiveness
But opening up isn't an option, you cannot be a witness!

I'll just keep quiet, it isn't a big deal.
I'm used to having to hide and, lie, and conceal
Yeah, the mental torture is unbearable and unreal.
But it's not like I can talk, since my voice they did steal.

(Bridge)

Along the way I've forgotten myself,
Never understood who I am.
Maybe that's the lesson and my pain has a reason.
Though it's hard not to sink but to swim.

(Chorus)

Done enough trusting in my life, only felt the pain
And I'm sick and tired of playing this game.
I was fully honest, now look what you've became.
Heard your lies so many times, I'm turning insane.

Now my mind and heart are shattered like a picture frame.
My thoughts are scattered and they're all filled with shame.
This happens every time that I try to explain.
I think I'm finished with these nightmares and flames.

Stuck in this silence.

(Outro)

Stuck in this silence.

Done with the violence.

I'm stuck in silence.
