“Within The Silence Of My Loneliness”
I can hear voices in my head
I can hear voices in a park
I can even hear dogs bark
But I cannot see them
I can hear music play
But nobody sings along
As I was looking at the sun
On a dirt road…wandering to nowhere
I shut my eyes for a moment in fear
Could not control it any longer
A message from deep within
Screaming some words
In the silence of my loneliness
A void that sucks me right in
The day of peace and quiet now gone
Within the silence of my loneliness
Am I losing my mind?
Or is this a horror dream
Very slowly I open my eyes
My thoughts brutally interrupted by this noise
Why are some f#cking people so loud
I can hear no more voices in a park
I can even hear my own dogs bark
But I hate to hear
The devils voice
In my own back yard
I cannot see… anger left me blind!!
