I know a girl who walks these halls, her future bright before her
Future’s right before her eyes
She says to me he’s all I need, and could he be more perfect
Could he be more perfect tonight?
But she doesn’t see the girl I see
Always left wanting more
But if she only knew with a little bit of time
How much there’d be in store
And maybe someday she wonders
I’ll get out of this old town
That they’ll listen to me when I speak
But she doesn’t make a sound, no she doesn’t make a sound
She just wants nothing more to feel loved and adored
And she’s hard on herself
A new world unexplored
She shifts and she molds to fit into the crowd
Yes, she’s hard on herself
Because silence is loud
Silence
Silence is loud
Silence is loud
I know a girl who is broken and bruised
With a future ahead she’s got so much to lose
And he wasn’t all you dreamed he’d be
Now nothing can be perfect
Nothing will be perfect again
And why do bad things happen to good people like you?
We say to ourselves there’s nothing we can do
And maybe someday in another life a voice will be found within
But for now, the bad guy wins
She still wants nothing more to feel loved and adored
But they question her truth and it all goes ignored
She shifts and she molds
Told to follow the crowd
Yes, they all know the truth
Because silence is loud
Silence
Silence is loud
Silence is loud
Silence
Silence is loud
Their silence is loud
