*Note* The outro also sounds good played with Part 1 as open, picked chords
Here are the lyrics:
If I am silent, then I am not real
If I speak up then no one will hear
If I wear a mask then 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 feel it I won't get touched
If no truth was spoken then no lies can hide
Silence is golden
I have been broken
Safe in my own skin
So nobody wins
Silence is golden
Nobody gets in
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 it
My body's a temple, but nothing is simple
Silence is golden, I have been broken
Something was stolen, safe in my own skin
Safe in my own skin, won't someone listen?
My body's a temple, but nothing is simple
My body's a temple, but nothing is simple
Something was stolen, I have been broken
I have been broken, silence is golden
I have been broken, safe in my own skin
