You better run, here comes your mama
|
Her eyes see red this time
|
You should be workin' boy, instead of daydreamin'
|
She says that you're a bad one
|
got the wrong things on your mind
|
So you turn up the music loud to block out her screamin'
|
.....No words of love are ever spoken
|
....and he's gonna leave this place ...once the door is open
|
|
[1st Chorus]
|
He'll Shatter the Silence with every beat of his heart
|
The best kept secrets never stay in the dark
|
Defiance only makes him strong
|
The child grows up, he ain't silent for long.......not for long
|
|
Your daddy tried to buy your silence
|
His eyes seemed to hold a threat
|
He'd blame all your bruises on rough games in the schoolyard
|
The strike of his hand upon you
|
was all the attention that you could get
|
Soon you would push your luck just to get all you needed
|
.......'Til now all the shame remained unspoken
|
.....But watch how the children rise....once their eyes are opened
|
|
[2nd Chorus]
|
They'll Shatter the Silence, now it's their turn to tell
|
It's a long way from Heaven when you're livin' in Hell
|
Defiance...It's time to even the score
|
The child grows up, he ain't silent no more
|
The Silence....Now it's time to be heard
|
It's hard stayin' quiet when you can't breathe a word
|
Silence...It's a two-edge sword
|
The child grows, he ain't silent no more.....
|
He ain't silent no more!....no no..
|
|
They'll Shatter the the Silence...
|
Shatter the Silence....(silent no more)
|
They'll Shatter the Silence......
