[male
vocals] (
Ooh-ooh,
yeah)
Sometimes
the
silence
loud
pass
the
noise
Listen
now
At
twenty,
I
was
hungry
for
the
light
Chasing
attention,
keeping
all
the
boys
in
sight
But
at
thirty,
the
story
took
a
different
turn
I
traded
the
spark
for
a
bridge
that
wouldn't
burn
I
wanted
stability,
a
place
to
rest
my
head
Ignoring
all
the
warnings
that
my
inner
spirit
said
Now
I’
m
forty,
and
I’
m
chasing
peace
of
mind
Leaving
all
the
drama
and
the
chaos
far
behind
I’
ve
walked
the
roughest
path,
survived
the
heartbreak
too
I’
ve
seen
the
fire
burn,
I’
ve
seen
the
sky
turn
blue
And
now
I
choose
the
silence,
yeah,
I
choose
the
calm
'Cause
peace
is
the
only
healing
balm
They
say
I’
m
changing,
say
I’
m
acting
brand
new
But
they
never
saw
the
battles
that
I
had
to
go
through
When
the
anger
in
my
spirit
could
have
pulled
down
the
sky
I
looked
at
the
mirror
and
I
didn't
even
cry
I
realized
that
not
every
argument
needs
a
reply
Some
people
just
wait
for
the
moment
you
decide
to
sigh
Now
I’
m
forty,
and
I’
m
chasing
peace
of
mind
Leaving
all
the
drama
and
the
chaos
far
behind
I’
ve
walked
the
roughest
path,
survived
the
heartbreak
too
I’
ve
seen
the
fire
burn,
I’
ve
seen
the
sky
turn
blue
And
now
I
choose
the
silence,
yeah,
I
choose
the
calm
'Cause
peace
is
the
only
healing
balm
Wisdom
is
refusing
to
battle
with
the
fools
I’
m
breaking
all
the
chains,
I’
m
rewriting
all
the
rules
No
more
sacrificial
lamb
for
those
who
don’
t
see
me
I’
m
stepping
out
the
dark,
I’
m
finally
feeling
free (
Ooh-ooh,
yeah)
Sometimes
the
silence
loud
pass
the
noise
Listen
now (
Just
the
sunshine
after
the
rain)
Silence
isn't
weakness,
it's
the
strength
within
Let
the
new
chapter
of
my
quiet
life
begin
Peace
of
mind,
yeah
Just
peace
of
mind (
Ooh-ooh,
yeah,
I'm
at
peace)
