I’m told that I have a voice and that I have a name
If you really listen close you can hear your own calling
I’m thinking maybe mine is broke ‘cuz I barely hear a thing
Silence overtook the place where you should have been dwelling
Sometimes your absence is so loud I simply start yelling

  1. Silence can be piercing
    sometimes it really hurts
    you are not deaf
    can hear sounds
    recognize the hertz.

    Maybe you cannot hear it
    because there’s a deflation
    Or maybe is depression
    creating a state of confusion
    trying to get you out
    from the right mind frame
    and from the right station.
