Silent So Long

I tell you when to speak
To get up from your seat
Youre wearing the letter abettor
See what youve done to me
I know theres nothing left to be
I know there is no use
There is no forever and ever
Cant fix what once was whole
It used to follow me wherever
Like vines that grew
Id run to hold myself together
Like vines that grew
Silent so long
After the wait
After Im on my own
I illuminate
Below the strong are weak
What talked has turned to meat
I let it get redder and redder
What tore inside of me
Alone Im my enemy
Alone I see the truth
I know that together or severed
Ill dig out from the hole
It used to follow me wherever
Like vines that grew
Id run to hold myself together
Like vines that grew
Silent so long
After the wait
After Im on my own
I illuminate
Silent so long
After the wait
After Im on my own
I illuminate
Silent so long
After the wait
After Im on my own
I illuminate
Silent so long
After the wait
After Im on my own
I illuminate
Silent so long
After the wait
After Im on my own
I illuminate
