If I am silent then I am not real
    If I speak up then no one will hear
    If I wear a mask 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't feel then I won't get touched
    If no truths are spoken then no lies can hide
    
    Silence is golden
    I have been broken
    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 in
    My body's a temple
    But nothing is simple
    Silence is golden
    I have been broken
    Something was stolen
    Safe in my own skin
