Silent Tears
Written by Rachel Koomen
Everything is black
There’s no way back
the verdict just been told
You’re not getting old
In silence sitting in the chair
repeating thoughts don’t stop
It’s not fair. It’s not fair
I hear the ticking of the clock….
What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger
that’s what they say,
but when you’re not getting older and time it is you want to delay
cause you want to stay
I hear the ticking off the clock pounding in my head
and suddenly I realize
I have to redefine time
Because the ticking is mine!
Nobody knows when it’s time for us to go
Nobody knows the moment to let go
nobody knows.
So, every day.
The world is upside down
Another day
to fight, survive, to live, and pray
But I have to stay strong and carry on, even though it feels wrong.
hear the ticking off the clock pounding in my head
and suddenly I realize
I have to redefine time
Because the ticking is mine!
Life goes on without no doubt
Your flame will burn forever
So wonderful to think of
so hard to be without
Silent tears
Have no fear
I’m still here
Nobody knows when it’s time for us to go
Nobody knows the moment to let go
nobody knows.
So, every day….
Is a new goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
