Sounds Of Silence
Copyright 2006: Time For Change

This is what you wanted, to be left alone
If not for being haunted there'd be no one home

Silence once was golden, the only thing you hear
Is beating your heart broken, ringing in your ear

It's been such a long time
Since I've tried to find myself
I need a little help
'Cause somewhere inside
Is someone I have left behind
To live this life

Nothing changes all the same, wide awake and dreaming
Driving myself half insane, silently screaming

Unlock the door and open, revealing bitter season
Letting go and holding heartache I'm feeling

Chorus

For mental violence
The sounds of silence I feared
When she disappeared
And someday I'll find
The man I've been trying to hide
To live this life

This is what you wanted, to be left alone
If not for being haunted, there'd be no one home

"Sounds of Silence" was written in the winter of 2005. I was renting a 3 bedroom home with a girl and wrote this song not long after I decided that it was best for me to be there alone. No headaches, no trouble, nobody ... just the sounds of silence.
