Each little piece begins to stack up
|
Now suffering under the weight of my choices
|
And I hardly recognise myself
|
Somewhere along the line
|
There stopped being lines at all
|
(whispering silence)
|
|
Whispering silence
|
The subtle contradiction
|
Compromise creeps in
|
Forgetting who I once was
|
Slowly changing
|
Who I once was
|
|
Each moment seemed so small
|
When looked at by itself
|
But it adds up
|
And it has torn me down
|
All lines are gone
|
(whispering silence)
|
|
Whispering silence
|
The subtle contradiction
|
Compromise creeps in
|
Forgetting who I once was
|
Slowly changing
|
Who I once was
|
|
So close to the truth
|
But still impossible
|
It was never one thing
|
And too many to try to add up
|
Fueled by faint deception
|
Conflict without acknowledging opposition
|
|
All because I had taken pride in my hidden lies
|
|
Whispering silence
|
The subtle contradiction
|
Compromise creeps in
|
Forgetting who I once was
|
Slowly changing
|
Who I once was
|
It was never one thing
|
And too many to try to add up
|
|
All because I had taken pride in my hidden lies
|

Whispering Silence
