Thought Abyss - Lost In My Head

silence

I know you hate silence
Because it showers on you pain
And 'reminds you of those things
That you wish to hide in the folds of your brain

I know you hate silence
Because it unleashes your madness and confusion
And those unsorted thoughts and undealt emotions.
That haven't yet found their conclusion.

I know you hate silence
Because it doesn't help you drown the voices in your head
Your mind resurfaces every thought
And you just lie, sick in bed

I know you hate silence
Because it makes you feel empty
And you know it doesn't keep you away from melodrama
For it has it's own in plenty

I know you hate silence
Because in silence you hear only yourself
And somehow you don't land
In your own upper shelf

I know you hate silence
Because it brings you to a halt
And tries to convince to you
It was all your fault

I know you hate silence
Because it's a powerful scream
One that is loud and deafening
Enough to wake you from your wildest dream

I know you hate silence
But that's because of what you don't realize
Life is loud and nature isn't quiet
You'll need hushed time, to figure the fire in your eyes

I know you hate silence
But isn't it sometimes freedom
Because trying to explain people who don't want to understand
Is like explaining a soldier treason

I know you hate silence
But sometimes isn't it nice
To bleed and bloom in the quiet
And build empires without a price

Silence can be beautiful
Like when it fills blanks when words aren't enough
In a nutshell, silence is scary and important
And to call it vague, is a bluff.
