If I am silent then I am not real 
If I speak up then no one will hear 
If I wear a mask there's somewhere to hide

Silence is golden 
I have been broken 
Safe in my own skin 
So nobody wins 

If I raise my voice 
Will someone get hurt? 
And if I can't feel then I won't get touched
If no truths are spoken then no lies can hide

Silence is golden 
I have been broken 
Safe in my own skin 
So nobody wins 

Did you hear me speak
Do you understand
Did you hear my voice
Will you hold my hand
Do you understand me

Won't someone listen
Nobody gets in
My body's a temple
But nothing is simple
Silence is golden
I have been broken
Something was stolen
Safe in my own skin
