Echoes of Silence

Nu metal/ Creole/ Screamo/ Emo

Verse 1
Yesterday, I sat in the kitchen counting
The spaces between my thoughts.
My house is on the top of the mountain.
Sometimes I hear its voice.

And when I slowed down my breathing,
My breath continued without me.
I closed my eyes and felt something watching.
I opened them just to see

The silence.

Pre-Chorus
I saw the silence and heard its echoes.

Chorus
Emptiness has teeth.
It changes the sounds,
It talks 'bout grief,
It's looking around...

And I hear

Echoes of silence.
They grow inside my mind.
Echoes of silence...

Verse 2
But the darkness didn't chase me.
It was waiting for me to come myself.
I tried to pretend that I was sleeping,
I tried to pretend to be someone else.

My memories were changing
Into words that should never be told.
And something kept whispering,
And my insanity began to unfold.

Bridge
I tried to count spaces between my own thoughts.
But I didn't even notice that I was already lost.

In the echoes of silence...


Final Chorus
Emptiness has teeth.
It changes the sounds,
It talks 'bout grief,
It's looking around...

And I hear

Echoes of silence.
They grow inside my mind.
Echoes of silence...

Emptiness already knows my fears.
And echoes of silence would not disappear.

The last sound of my breath
Is not mine anymore.
I became part of the darkness as she called me before.
