Song lyrics

She looked right into my eyes and said to me:
The hurt that you try to hide is killing me.
I drink a thousand lies
To freeze the past in time.

I've tried to fill this silence up,
But now it's back again.

See the pain in my eyes,
See the scars deep inside,
My God, I'm down in this hole again.
With the laughter I smile,
With the tears that I cry,
Keep going down this road called life.

She says that I'm insecure,
I guess she's right.
'Cause just when I think I'm sure, alone at night,
The agonies come back,
This pain won't let me be.

I try to fill the silence up,
But now it's back again.

See the pain in my eyes,
See the scars deep inside,
My God, I'm down in this hole again.
With the laughter I smile,
With the tears that I cry,
Keep going down this road called life.
Don't need your sympathy,
I just want for this silence to stop killing me.

It's deafening
It's deafening
This silence inside me

I try to fill the silence up,
But now it's back again
It's empty like a suicide,
This pain inside
