From the recording STILL ME STILL HERE
Lyrics
Silence won't protect you
No need to hold it in
Shame, it can infect you
Tell you you're a sin
You’re here to tell your story
You’re here to tell some truth
Imitation's boring
There’s no one like you
There's no one like you
Those slices of your silence
Will cut you ‘til you bleed
That heart you hide inside you
Will shrink in secrecy
Scream to the heavens
Pour out your grief
Cost of your silence
is paid with your peace
The price is peace
Burn past the fourth wall
It's just an illusion
Speak straight to your God
No need for confession
Loosen the grip that you hold
Let go of control
Time to lose the actor's mask
That skin no longer fits
Your future's not your past
and it won't be on the quiz
You're standing in the shadow
and now you have to leave
cause if you don't step in the light
The price you'll pay is peace
The price is peace
