White Noise

When the words have been worn down
And voices have died
Seeking the reasons to reply
Gather the strength to respond.

And the silence grows louder
White noise reinforced
And the silence cries louder
Waves of sound reversed.

Hear me when I speak
The words without a sound
And try to comprehend
Decipher the code of silence
Translate the language of the numb.

I try to phrase
The weight of the words
Relieve the load
I draw it on the walls
Scars on my skin
Of the wars within.

And the silence grows louder
White noise reinforced
And the silence cries louder.

Hear me when I speak
The words without a sound
And try to comprehend
Decipher the code of silence
Translate the language.

Hear me when I speak
The words without a sound
And try to comprehend
Decipher the code of silence
Translate the language of the numb.
