Screams of Silence

by The Girl From Yesterday   Jun 26, 2009


Everything is perfect, or so it does seem.
But when did the nightmares overtake the dreams?
They see them from the outside, never from within.
They don't see the murderers, the traitors and the sin.

Society tends to accept what society wants to see.
Never do they hear a person's silent screams.
Never do they listen as a world falls apart.
Never do they care about a broken heart.

What happens when words always turn into a scream?
When nothings ever quiet, everythings extreme.
When silence overtakes and everything falls to shame.
They say it is their fault, but is it right to blame?

Is it right to say I love you, when hatred screams the truth?
Is it correct to say it'll be ok, when there isn't any proof?
Is it ok to stand in darkness, instead of seek the light?
The darkness spreads even further, when the words turn into fights.

Days turn into months and months turn into years.
The silence slowly spreads and takes away the fears.
Nightmares give way to the long missed dreams.
Everything is perfect, or so it does seem.
