If life was a movie,
I'd be a silent one
Where all is understood
Without words being sung
Feelings would show through
Emotions never masked
Miscommunications
Finally in the past
Words lead to confusion
With tears long overdue
When feelings are hidden
There's no way to tell what's true
So break your masks away
Set your emotions free
Overact your heart out
But silent you must be
I'd be a silent one
Where all is understood
Without words being sung
Feelings would show through
Emotions never masked
Miscommunications
Finally in the past
Words lead to confusion
With tears long overdue
When feelings are hidden
There's no way to tell what's true
So break your masks away
Set your emotions free
Overact your heart out
But silent you must be
