Silence Is Loud

 
        Am 
Will you  hear me if 

I kick and scream and holler and shout 
      E 
Will you hear me if 
                                 F 
I cleanse my teeth and cover my mouth 
                                                          C 
Will you hear the things you should have already figured out 
                       E 
Will you solve all of our problems if we don't make a sound 
        Am 
Will you  save me if 

I do a dance to prove 
                                                      E 
I'm devout Or will you blame me for complaining that you're never around 

Will you hate me for defaming you in front of a crowd 

Your silence is loud

When I'm down on my knees 
           A 
And there's blood in the streets 
       E 
And the tyrants own the people 

And the people are our thieves 

When the children call their mothers 
     F 
And their mothers call on me 
      C         E 
Saying save me save me 
 

 
When I broke all my bones 
    A 
And  I'm left all alone 
      E 
With my demons as companions 

Trying to find my way home 

I don't know how 

I'll stand  All 
F                                     C          E 
I know is that you won't be there to save me save me 
 

 
        Am 
Will you  hear me if 
                   A              E 
I kick and scream and holler and shout 

Will you hear me if 
                                 F 
I cleanse my teeth and cover my mouth 
                                                          C 
Will you hear the things you should have already figured out 
                       E                               Am 
Will you solve all of our problems if we don't make a sound 

Will you save me if 

I do a dance to prove 
     E                                                             F 
I'm devout Or will you blame me for complaining that you're never around 

Will you hate me for defaming you in front of a crowd 

Your silence is loud

Will you hear me if 
                                F 
I quench my teeth and cover my mouth

      C          E 
Your silence is loud 
 

 
I was so anxious about how 
         E 
I would appear in your eyes  Till 

I realized how 
                                F 
I'm slowly spending bits of my life 

I could spend it making poetry or hearing you whine 
C                 E 
The decision is mine 
     A                                  E 
Now my so-called friends seem slipping away 
                                         F 
Never been so distant never had so much space 

Never been better never had a reason to shout 

But the silence is loud
