Now suffering under the weight of my choices
And I hardly recognise myself
Somewhere along the line
There stopped being lines at all
(Whispering silence)
Whispering silence
The subtle contradiction
Compromise creeps in
Forgetting who I once was
Slowly changing
Who I once was
Each moment seemed so small
When looked at by itself
But it adds up
And it has torn me down
All lines are gone
(Whispering silence)
Whispering silence
The subtle contradiction
Compromise creeps in
Forgetting who I once was
Slowly changing
Who I once was
So close to the truth
But still impossible
It was never one thing
And too many to try to add up
Fueled by faint deception
Conflict without acknowledging opposition
All because I had taken pride in my hidden lies
Whispering silence
The subtle contradiction
Compromise creeps in
Forgetting who I once was
Slowly changing
Who I once was
It was never one thing
And too many to try to add up
All because I had taken pride in my hidden lies
Each little piece begins to stack up Now suffering under the weight of my choices And I hardly recognise myself Somewhere along the line There stopped being lines at all (Whispering silence) Whispering silence The subtle contradiction Compromise creeps in Forgetting who I once was Slowly changing Who I once was Each moment seemed so small When looked at by itself But it adds up And it has torn me down All lines are gone (Whispering silence) Whispering silence The subtle contradiction Compromise creeps in Forgetting who I once was Slowly changing Who I once was So close to the truth But still impossible It was never one thing And too many to try to add up Fueled by faint deception Conflict without acknowledging opposition All because I had taken pride in my hidden lies Whispering silence The subtle contradiction Compromise creeps in Forgetting who I once was Slowly changing Who I once was It was never one thing And too many to try to add up All because I had taken pride in my hidden lies Explain Request ×
