Silence is my curse
I'm fine with noise, noises so loud I can't hear
But you know what really deafens me
Silence, that's what curses me
The voices, all my own, scream so loud
I can't hear, I can't go on
My head is full, the voices yell
They conflict, they lie, they tell the truth
And they're scared of the noise
Silence is my curse
And I'll do anything to avoid it
Cause when the noise goes down and the moon comes up
The voices come out to play
I wish I could make it stop
And I can for a time
The music and the sounds of life
Give me a rest from the thoughts
But when the sounds leave me alone
The silence comes out to play
Silence is my curse
And it’s a curse I bear alone
It’s the curse that others cure
But when they go
The silence wreaks havoc in my brain
