Silence

from Tries Harder by The Sam Chase

/

lyrics

It’s a factory made out of matchbooks
and any day now that fucker will fall to the ground
we’ll light the matches on fire
and watch as the spirits escape from their burial grounds

No one cares
that people are dying
as long as we can afford their coffins

Why choose silence?

It’s an ugly excuse for a beautiful world
We’re destroying it all for convenience
god was murdered by a nuclear bomb
the world is the corpse of what was once mother earth

no one cares
about the mistakes of our fathers
we honor our dead as a way to avoid them

Why choose silence?

It’s been nothing but but lies
a vision of safety
keeping us warm at night

They never even tried
“You’re on your own”
is the motto of the empire

So scream all at once
don’t be self conscious
You were given a voice to have something to say

Let it all out
let it soak in
let the sound linger
on the tips of your eardrums

Don’t let words
dissolve your message
let your emotions decide what to say

So scream all at once
scream all together
For someone to hear something first must be said
