For you, I’ll sing this song Please stay, it won’t last long Years after we are long gone The meaning will stay strong
Silence is what this song’s about Numb to the world all around But I will sing of this place Hoping it finds you some way
People needing to be saved Scream out for our help every day But we grown numb to the sounds And feelings slowly start to drown
First time, we can hear a voice But soon it all becomes noise Fading to silence in the end I know it doesn’t make sense…
When sound all ceases to exist People think that means happiness And all the sounds that used to be…
Are all just noise to you and me The cries of help disappear The silence numbs all of our ears
And when we stop listening Those screams stop meaning anything
Don’t you let your heart grow numb to everyone Oh child, listen to the “sound of silence” Saving someone else means saving yourself It’s true, and I’m sure you know it too
When you hear an “SOS” Answering it becomes a test It can give the life you lead A meaning that you’d never seen So don’t resist a call for help Cause in the end it will tell you How to treasure yourself And not be alone
It might seem a little strange To share this song this way But i know what i must do Is share the meaning with you All this i learned from someone Who spent his life among People screaming out for help Doing everything to reach out
Don’t you let your heart grow numb to everyone Oh child, listen to the “sound of silence” Saving someone else means saving yourself It’s true, and I’m sure you know it too
Don’t you let your heart grow numb to everyone Oh child, listen to the “sound of silence” Saving someone else means saving yourself It’s true, and I’m sure you know it too
