She sits alone in silence
And doesn’t feel the tears
Flooding forward from her soul
She hasn’t, now, in years
The emptiness within her
Surrounds her every day
And echoes with her painful past
Memories just don’t fade
Everyone she’s loved, she’s lost
And so she loves no more
Her darkness finally won the fight
Her soul, it lost the war
She sits alone in silence
And never says a word
All the years she spent screaming
The only one who ever heard
Never cared much, in the end
It was only just a dream
So she sits in silent tears
And, silently, she screams.
