Joshua Luke Smith feat. Kyra Lyrics
"Silence"

Chorus:
I love the silence
The way it speaks to me
When there's no silver linings
It reaches me
I love the silence

Verse One:
Been drinking denial
Running from dragons that live in my mind
Searching for answers that no man can find
Outside of himself I'll tell you I'm fine
Coz anything else leads back to the scene of the crime

Coz I killed the truth by living a lie
I buried my feeling to reach to the sky
I thought that you couldn't have both
So I trade silence for babble distracted and shallow
A least with the noise I can drown out my voice

Coz I don't know when the last time was I told someone how I really felt
And I don't know when the last time was I was really by myself

Chorus:
I love the silence
The way it speaks to me
When there's no silver linings
It reaches me
I love the silence

Verse Two:
Oh these words feels risky
Burning my throat like the aged whisky I'm drinking
Reframing The pain I'm feeling traded my emotions
For thinking like a philosopher
Now I'm lost and forgot my name in the moniker

I thought being lonely was being alone
Until I felt distant within my own soul
And realised people don't change how you feel
When you don't feel refuge within your home
And you gotta face what's hidden won't heal

And I don't know when the last time was I told someone that I needed help
And I don't know when the last time was I was I could really be myself

Chorus:
I love the silence
The way it speaks to me
When there's no silver linings
It reaches me
I love the silence

Bridge
Tryna slow down, be on my own now,
Face what I can't escape
Stay in the deep end searching for meaning,
gotta get out my way
Chasing the freedom, facing these demons
Taking up too much space,
so I'll sit here and wait

Chorus:
I love the silence
The way it speaks to me
When there's no silver linings
It reaches me
I love the silence
