Be silent with me

I walk on a path in a deep forest and the noise of loneliness fills my head
I think of all my friends and family that are long since dead

I listen to the wind blow through the trees, on my face I can feel the warm summer breeze
My breath deepens and my heart slows as I fall to my knees

I hear their voices loud, I hear their voices clear
I can see their faces through every tear

Be silent with me

I realize I am alone and there is no one with me
Is this I wonder, how my whole life will be?

I have people I call friends; but how many will be there till the end?
When death comes knocking at my door; will there be someone there I can call my friend?

I can feel the blood flowing through my veins
I can eat a loud thunder in my head accompanying sharp pains

Be silent with me

Where am I? There is nothing here I recognize
Trees begin to blend with bushes, I can not trust my eyes

I am feeling a sense of loneliness like never before
I wish I had someone to talk to, as I clutch the forest floor

I find myself wanting to tell someone of all the things I feel
How the only thing I ever wanted was a friend that was real

I never thought it was too much to ask for, someone to treat me the way I treat them
So many people have a warped understanding of the meaning of friend

I can hear the sweat pour from every pore of my being
I can hear everything, even the most distant birds singing

Be silent with me

I feel my thoughts slow as if I were in the edge of sleep
I struggle to make sense of these feelings that are running so deep

I roll onto my back and look up at the sky
Today I think, is a beautiful day to die

A random thought I can not explain
Is it I wonder, because I feel no more pain?

I no longer hear the faint sound of my heart beat
Then I hear the sound of the voices saying come...

Be silent with me
