Silent screams behind my smile
Bruised by words that stay awhile
No fists, no scars, no broken bones
Just empty rooms I call my home

You won’t hear it, but it’s there
A quiet violence, everywhere

This is my quiet violence
Breaking me in perfect silence
No shattered glass, no shattered skin
Just the war I fight within

Paper cuts inside my head
Whispered doubts I never shed
They told me: Man up, don’t you cry
So I learned to bleed inside

You won’t hear it, but it’s there
A quiet violence, I swear

This is my quiet violence
Breaking me in perfect silence
No shattered glass, no shattered skin
Just the war I fight within

And nobody knows, nobody sees
But I break quietly

This is my quiet violence
Breaking me in perfect silence
No shattered glass, no shattered skin
Just the war I fight within
