Silent
She is lost
in her cry
she ain't free
she ain't fine
she doesn't know
that she is alive
and she wouldn't know
if I died.
She is lost
in a sad song
she is trapped
in a hole
she grabbed my feet
and my soul
and tried to burn me
like coal...
She is lost
in the game
in my eyes
in my brain
in the broken memory
of her shame
in the silent sound
of her name.
She is lost
and she ain't the one to blame
