SyntheticHeart's Poems and Songs

Silent (Song)

Why is it that I get the feeling of

Being alone surrounded by the ones I love

I am using every coping strategy I know

But my dark mind just won't leave me alone!

Maybe I should write a letter

Or just cry it out till I feel better

Consume my energy with a quick run

Under the hot Arizona sun

Strum the strings of mother's special guitar

Sing of the memories I've made with father

With eyes full of tears

And a mind full of fears

I try to cope with it all

I just want to get rid of it all...

Why is it that I get the feeling of

Being alone surrounded by the ones I love

I am using every coping strategy I know

But my dark mind just won't leave me alone!

Sometimes I can't help but hang my head and cry

Singing someone out there, tell me why

Do people claim that they will be understanding

Only to end up fighting and scolding

He says "You can talk to me dear

Open up to me, I'm all ears"

But as I opened my mouth he narrowed his eyes

At least the heavens know I tried

So someone tell me why do I even bother to speak

When it doesn't make it better, it only makes me weak

Why is it that I get the feeling of

Being alone surrounded by the ones I love

I am using every coping strategy I know

But my dark mind just won't leave me alone!

For now, I am going to keep my mouth shut

Till I get out of this damned rut

I'm going to throw it all away

Who needs words anyway

I have every right to remain silent.
