Once was an eternal man, bereft of a future plan
Then that all just went to waste, now I'm living life in haste
Afraid of the silence
Head filled with blank dreams, boats sinking on the stream
Imagination fades away, goodbye the dreams you made me flay
Afraid of the silence
All locked up and suffocated
I am lost and so frustrated
One day we're gonna die, but don't let that make you cry
Take me hand we'll fly away, and dream of our better days
Away from the silence
Brightly colored plastic things, morph into 6 steel strings
Superheroes don't exist; they fade away into the mist
They adopt the silence
All locked up and suffocated
I am lost and so frustrated
Just a kid inside a grown shell
Then I couldn't wait to grow up, drinking juice from a plastic cup
Now I'm afraid what I've become, shy alone and probably dumb
Afraid of the silence
All locked up and suffocated
I am lost and so frustrated
Just a kid inside a grown shell
