If I am silent then I am not real
If I speak up then no one will hear
If I wear a mask there's somewhere to hide


Silence is golden
I have been broken

Safe in my own skin
So nobody wins


If I raise my voice
Will someone get hurt?
And if I can't feel then I won't get touched

If no truths are spoken then no lies can hide

Silence is golden

I have been broken
Safe in my own skin
So nobody wins


Did you hear me speak
Do you understand

Did you hear my voice
Will you hold my hand
Do you understand me


Won't someone listen
Nobody gets in

My body's a temple
But nothing is simple
Silence is golden

I have been broken
Something was stolen
Safe in my own skin
