white noise

The silence is deadly it's only contempt to your voice

I watch as you play me throw me around like an old toy

Like smoke in your lungs you breathe me in and back out again

With fire at your door you'd throw me in the flames

I tried to erase you but all I am is stained

Tell me honestly

Are you listening or am I white noise circling through your brain

To keep you entertained simply to numb the pain

To make up for ghosts that never seem to fade

I can't be your white noise when she's not around
