Can I be free?
What do you see when you see me?
Are these angry thoughts ok?
Do you ever question the way
You look and act and think and feel?
So many folks you don't believe are real
Do you ever get exhausted
Living other people's lives?
Before the walls come crashing down
Will you really sell our sisters out
To find out (Find out)
We were never doing better on our own
How quickly we forget the past
Stop telling me to just relax
You will find out (Find out)
There's no music in a world of silence
They don't sing, they use violins for violence
There's no music in a world of silence
How can anybody be so strident
So they're playing in this symphony
And we're reeling
From the lack of empathy
That starts from the 1st chair to the back
Conducted like an orchestrated attack
In spite of all these striking wounds
We know it's now that we choose
This hate we pointlessly endure
We'll fight and then ensure
Before the walls come crashing down
We won't really sell our brothers out
To find out (Find out)
We were never doing better on our own
So we'll make a solemn pact
To never forget our shared past
So we don't have to find out (Find out)
There's no music in a world of silence
They don't sing, they use violins for violence
There's no music in a world of silence
How can anybody be so strident
I'm holding out for
I'm still holding out for
I'm holding out for
One more chance
I'm holding out for
I'm still holding out for
I'm gonna break the
Silence
There's no music in a world of silence
They don't sing, they use violins for violence
There's no music in a world of silence
How can anybody be so strident
