Sound Of Silence

My plight has have fallen on deaf ears
 But you don't hear
 In shallow graves we lay
 Living as we all decay
 I bury all remarks
 But they lay waiting in the dark
 I feel your hands around my throat
 I feel your hands around my throat
 I can't live life
 I can't live life this way, I can't carry the weight
 I can't live life
 I can't live life this way, I cannot compensate
 Your oppression cuts me to the bone
 I've always known
 I'm not heard but there are
 Only so many words
 I bury all my remarks
 But they lay waiting in the dark
 I feel your hands around my throat
 I feel your hands around my throat
 I can't live life
 I can't live life this way, I can't carry the weight
 I can't live life
 I can't live life this way, I cannot compensate
 You can't hold me down
 I stand my ground, yeah, yeah
 My plight have fallen on deaf ears
 But you don't hear
 In shallow graves we lay
 Living as we all decay
 I bury all remarks
 But they lay waiting in the dark
 I feel your hands around my throat
 I feel your hands around my throat
 I can't live life
 I can't live life this way, I can't carry the weight
 I can't live life
 I can't live life this way, I cannot compensate, compensate
