"Listening For The Silence" lyrics

"Listening For The Silence"

All these strangers
Everywhere is danger, this anger
Has got me hating everyone that I see
And all these faces
I'm so afraid of the state of my mind
Everyone's looking at me

I can hear the chaos and the fear
(I'm not alone, but no one's here)
So I'm listening for the silence now
Na-na-na, na-na-ow
Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-ow
Na-na-na-na-ow-ow

I swear I can hear it so clear
Even though it's loud inside my head
So I'm silent, silent
My fear is you don't hear what I hear
Can you make the voices disappear?
So I keep listening for the silence
(Listening for the silence)

Teasing, while you're degrading my patience
I'm breaking, scared of all the shadows I see
And could you save me?
Anybody know what they're saying?
Please tell me, I just want them to leave

I can hear the chaos and the fear
(I'm not alone, but no one's here)
So I'm listening for the silence now
Na-na-na, na-na-ow
Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-ow
Na-na-na-na-ow-ow

I swear I can hear it so clear
Even though it's loud inside my head
So I'm silent, silent
My fear is you don't hear what I hear
Can you make the voices disappear?
So I keep listening for the silence

When these words fail
Then nothing just might make sense
Are you talking to me?
Are you speaking to me?
'Cause when these words fail
Then nothing just might make sense

'Cause when these words fail
Then nothing just might make sense
Are you talking to me?
Are you speaking to me?
'Cause when these words fail
Then nothing just might make sense
And you can say anything
Then nothing just might make sense

I swear I can hear it so clear
Even though it's loud inside my head
So I'm silent, silent
My fear is you don't hear what I hear
Can you make the voices disappear?
So listen, listen

I swear I can hear it so clear
Even though it's loud inside my head
So I'm silent, silent
My fear is you don't hear what I hear
Can you make the voices disappear?
So I keep listening for the silence
