Sound Of Silence Lyrics

Straight Line Stitch Sound Of Silence

My plight has have fallen on deaf ears
But you don't hear
In shallow graves we lay
Living as we all decay

I bury all remarks
But they lay waiting in the dark
I feel your hands around my throat
I feel your hands around my throat

I can't live life
I can't live life this way, I can't carry the weight
I can't live life
I can't live life this way, I cannot compensate

Your oppression cuts me to the bone
I've always known
I'm not heard but there are
Only so many words

I bury all my remarks
But they lay waiting in the dark
I feel your hands around my throat
I feel your hands around my throat

I can't live life
I can't live life this way, I can't carry the weight
I can't live life
I can't live life this way, I cannot compensate

You can't hold me down
I stand my ground, yeah, yeah

My plight have fallen on deaf ears
But you don't hear
In shallow graves we lay
Living as we all decay

I bury all remarks
But they lay waiting in the dark
I feel your hands around my throat
I feel your hands around my throat

I can't live life
I can't live life this way, I can't carry the weight
I can't live life
I can't live life this way, I cannot compensate, compensate
