Phil O'Donnell - Suffer In Silence Lyrics

Maybe I should have shut my mouth
But as I hear the words fall out
I don't want to take them back
I've been hurt and abused
Been convinced that I'm confused
And I don't know how to act
And the hurt that they tried to hide
Is eating me alive
It's underneath my window
It's outside my door
It's under my pillow
I can't take any more
Of this suffering silence...no more
I won't suffer in silence...no more
Things have been buried for too long
Never too late to right a wrong
So let's open up the pack
Didn't feel like I could speak
Now this wave has been unleashed
And it's breaking through the cracks
And the hurt that they tried to deny
Has found its way outside
It's underneath my window
It's outside my door
It's under my pillow
I can't take any more
Of this suffering silence...no more
I won't suffer in silence...no more
A secret that can't be shared
Weighs so heavy upon your heart
How can you know how much to bear
When so many can leave a mark
It's underneath your window
It's outside your door
It's in front of the mirror
You just can't ignore
This suffering silence...no more
We won't suffer in silence...no more
We won't suffer in silence...no more
We won't suffer in silence...no more
We all have our part to play
Bear witness to each other's pain
Take away the stigma and the shame
We feel
Just need someone to believe
To escape these fitful dreams
So sick of living in between
The gaps in fear
Now it's here
We won't turn our cheek
You won't prey on the weak no more
