Cutting the Ties

Silence is a frustrating answer when all you want is a sign Silence is a frustrating answer when all you wanted is a sign It's hard to be surrounded by the ones That you love when they keep passing You by(passing you by) Beneath the tough facade I know that we are getting through None of us are ready to just remember you Whenever you are lost I know that we can find you standing outside Screaming at the sky Don't let the tears of agony consume your heart Let it beat on in hopes and dreams of a new start No one knows the weight on your shoulders No one knows the burdens you bare These thoughts won't stop I'd be so easy to take the easy way out I'd be so easy to take the easy Compassion is a beautiful thing, so show some for yourself Rock solid from the outside looking in Rock solid from the outside looking in Inside you're praying for help. Rock solid from the outside looking in You're praying for help It's hard to be surrounded by the ones That you love when they keep passing You by (passing you by) Beneath the tough facade I know that we are getting through Life is a gift, remember this, remember this Break free, break free, break free I know silence is a hard answer when all you want is a sign Patience is a virtue (a virtue) you will be revived --- Cutting the Ties - August Burns Red
