[Intro]
I was silent screaming
Silent screaming
[Verse 1]
There were times when
I asked "How will this end?"
Stuck at a stoplight
All I'm seeing is red
Living a false life
Not so good at pretending
Please tell me who I am
[Pre-Chorus]
I was never meant to stay the same
Swear I went through every single stage
Took a while but finally I can see
Suffering's the thing that sets you free
[Chorus]
Life was closing down, and I shut you out
I'm so sorry I did, I was silent screaming
I got stuck on the past, thought "How long will this last?"
So I settled my debts, now I'm breaking even
[Verse 2]
Stoplight turning red to green
Past life got the best of me
But it all came back around
Took a little while to write it out (yeah)
[Pre-Chorus]
I was never meant to stay the same
Swear I went through every single stage
Took a while but finally I can see
Suffering's the thing that set me free
[Chorus]
Life was closing down, and I shut you out
I'm so sorry I did, I was silent screaming
I got stuck on the past, thought "How long will this last?"
So I settled my debts, now I'm breaking even
[Instrumental Break]
Silent screaming
Silent screaming
(Silent screaming)
[Chorus]
Life was closing down, and I shut you out (shut you out)
I was silent screaming
Life was closing down, and I shut you out
I'm so sorry I did, I was silent screaming
I got stuck on the past, thought "How long will this last?"
So I settled my debts, now I'm breaking even
[Outro]
Silent screaming
Silent screaming
