Lyrics
SILENT NO MORE
starting with whispering, starting
starting with whispering, starting
starting with whispering, starting
and ending with (rpt)
starting with a whisper, ending with a roar
I?ll be silent no more
starting with a whisper, ending with a roar
I?ll be silent no more
take my nature, take my ease
take this mad desire to please
take the grazes on my knees
take compliance, mould and squeeze
well I am not your shoulder nor some rug upon your floor
starting with a whisper, ending with a roar
I?ll be silent no more
starting with a whisper, ending with a roar
I?ll be silent no more
take the tears that never flow
take the oft-repeated blow
take the pain you will not show
take the whole scenario
?cause I am not you mother nor your angel nor your whore
starting with a whisper, ending with a roar
I?ll be silent no more
starting with a whisper, ending with a roar
I?ll be silent no more
starting with a whisper, ending with a roar
I?ll be silent no more
I?ll be silent no more
I?ll be silent no more
Silent no more
