| Lyrics: |
| Cm | |
| I'm | tricked by your smile |
| Fm | |
| want to be forgiven |
| Bb | |
| waiting for the battle |
| Bb | |
| aching for belief |
| but your answer is wrong |
| and my spirit is broken |
| like choirs in the winter |
| singing out of key |
| I am silent |
| invisible to you |
| while I count the days gone by |
| D# | Bb | |
| I am sil | ent |
| Bb | G# | |
| invisible to y | ou |
| G# | Bb | |
| while I shape the things to come |
| I try so hard |
| to fight for an illusion |
| holding my breath |
| biting my tongue |
| I try to cope |
| so give me a reason |
| I'm waiting for help |
| I'm trapped by my guilt |
| want to be forgotten |
| tired of the noise |
| aching for relief |
| but your anger is gone |
| and my silence is golden |
| like fires on the water |
| drifting out of reach |
| I am silent� |
