A Prophet Among Us - Silent Scream Lyrics

Deep in the crowd is a lady
Who is outwardly calm
But she's been touched
By injustice
She's felt and seen

And all of her feelings
Are crying to be let out
And build up into
A silent scream

There's a silent scream
There's a silent scream
There's a silent scream on the rise
There's a silent scream
A silent scream
There's a silent scream
Shattering the night

In his hour of desire
A man is visited
By the cold and
Empty pain of
Loneliness

His weeping it is voiceless
His expression says it all
As he clings to his
Pillow in bed

There's a silent scream
A silent scream
There's a silent scream on the rise
There's a silent scream
A silent scream
A silent scream
Shattering the night

A nation
Of people
Exploited and drained
By greed hunger
And power's thirst
Have all their frustrations
Channeled into a dam
Pretty soon that dam's
Going to burst

There's a silent scream
A silent scream
There's a silent scream on the rise
There's a silent scream
A silent scream
A silent scream
Shattering the night
