Silent

To live a life in silence, to live without the word.
 I'm sitting here like a silent bird.
 You try to understand the symbols of my hand.
 I am like a rock that has turned to sand.
 SILENT. MUTED FOR ETERNAL TIME? SO VIOLENT.
 BUT I JUST CAN'T CONFESS MY CRIME.
 Like every human being there is a thing I seek.
 For me the day when I can finally speak.
 To hear my voice again, I still remember when
 I could say what was on my mind.
 [bad word] the streets at night, against myself I fight
 I am only trying to survive you see.
 No man will ever live after what I will give.
 His soul will go to meet my voice up there.
 SILENT...
 Piece by piece I die. Soon there's no
 tears to cry. I am fading out just like a star falling
 from the sky! I hear me in my dreams. I can't deny
 I'm suffering. Judge from my silent screams.
 Without my voice I am withering.
 Oh, how I wish to scream and to wake
 up from this dream, but the pain I feel is real.
 I try to say my name. But I always hear the same:
 Silence! It drives me insane. To live a life in silence,
 to live without the word. I'm sitting here like a silent bird.
 You try to understand the symbols of my hand. I am like a
 rock that has turned to sand. Like every human being there's
 a thing I seek, for me the day when I can finally speak. To
 hear my voice again I still remember when I could say what
 was on my mind. Silent.
 SILENT...
 The written word has no meaning,
 there is no harmony in my words.
