Why I hate silence
Folder:
2004 you got mad at me again and I know what is coming
the thing that I always dread, I want to start running
how long will it last this time I wonder
in your eyes I keep seeing thunder
and sometimes I just want to turn to complete violence
I can't take it anymore, I hate this silence
you don't talk to me for reasons unknown
you never tell me what they are, I'm on my own
you start talking again whenever you want to
and never apologize to me for what you do
and it just makes me more and more turn to violence
I can't take it anymore, I can't take this silence
it really hurts me, you'll never know
the deepness of my pain, how it hurts me so
it's not supposed to be like this, you shouldn't hurt me this bad
you are supposed to be the adult in the situation cause you are my dad
and I keep trying to calm this monster inside creating the violence
it is killing me little by little more and more, this silence
yelling and screaming at me
for not being who you want me to be
giving me the silent treatment for hours at a time
I can't stop crying the tears they just unwind
it's really messed me up creating such violence
how I really have been ripped apart by this silence
I agree the silent treatment is sometimes more painful than screaming and shouting and getting out your feelings and trying to communicate good or bad...Sometimes it is best not to speak though, like my mom always said, If you can't say something good about someone don't say anything at all which is great advice...but the silent treatment speaks louder than words sometimes and drives you nuts, I agree....Pam
A wicked piece of work. You write very good.
