about

A song about striving, hoping and keeping your chin up.

lyrics

I've swept up after gods in dreams,
Silent like a windless nightmare,
Only easing through with time,
A lost and unfamiliar valentine.
Standing on her own,
With a rage within that rarely, seldom, ever shows.
Like a kiss stung on the wind,
Or a lie I'd not have thought to save,
Much less to win.

Don't Suffer in Silence.

A quickness in me,
A touch that I do not remember gracefully,
And you smile like it's ok,
But I remember what it was I wanted yesterday.

Don't Suffer in Silence.
(In your heart you'll find,
Your soul entwined with an aching longing,
To be yourself.
It's a long road and it's a hard station,
And I've never been so scared in my life.)

Still standing all alone,
With a rage within that rarely, seldom, ever shows.
Like a kiss stung on the wind,
Or a lie I'd not have thought to save,
Much less to win.

Don't Suffer in Silence.
