To live a life in silence, to live without the word
I'm sitting here like a silent bird
You try to understand the symbols on my hand
I am like a rock that has turned to sand

Silent
Muted for eternal time?
So violent
But I just can't confess my crime

Like every human being
There is a thing I seek
For me the day when I can finally speak
To hear my voice again
I still remember when
I could say what was on my mind

I rule the streets at night
Against myself I fight
I am only trying to survive you see
No man will ever live
After what I will give
His soul will go to meet my voice up there

Silent
Muted for eternal time?
So violent
But I just can't confess my crime

Piece by piece I die
Soon there's no tears to cry
I am fading out just like a star falling from the sky!

I hear me in my dreams
I can't deny I am suffering
Judge from my silent screams
Without my voice I am withering

Oh, how I wish to scream
And to wake up from this dream
But the pain I feel is real
I try to say my name
But I always hear the same:
Silence! It drives me insane
To live a life in silence
To live without the word
I'm sitting here like a silent bird
You try to understand the symbols on my hand
I am like a rock that has turned to sand

Like every human being
There is a thing I seek
For me the day when I can finally speak
To hear my voice again
I still remember when
I could say what was on my mind

Silent
Muted for eternal time?
So violent
But I just can't confess my crime

The written word has no meaning
There is no harmony in my words
