Lyrics

No, no, no All these years, I've sat and obeyed As I hear every word you say (did you hear Dolores has a crush on Mariano?) Get used to the noise, it'll soon go away But it's louder every day (I thought he was engaged to Isabela) A problem shared is a problem halved As you sit there unaware (oh my God, you're right, how embarrassing) That your little sin has crept through the wall (do you think she can hear us now? God, I hope not) And sunk under my skin You say, "Just ignore, close the door," as if I don't hear Mind echoes with your noise, as your voice tells me all your fears So full up with you that I'm too afraid to Make my own sound No one seems to care what I want and what I need A second to be silent, have some quiet, feel the noise recede And finally take a breath, as I'm only hearin' me The only noise is me Give me silence, I'll make them quiet Can't think before you speak Then you'll learn quiet Muzzle the violent, force them to quiet I'll finally be free I'll rule the quiet Time you learn to be seen and not heard Let's not hear another word Don't wanna know what you do, where you go So give me a silent show If a tree were to fall and no one was there Would it make a sound at all? The answer's yes, worry less 'bout the tree And more about those in your halls Grew up in this house as the walls whispered desperately For family, I obeyed, masquerade, it took all of me To know what I knew and to never ever say a word Heard every crack that appeared over all these years The ones brought by plaster and ones brought through pain and tears I left them to break, if the magic's gone Then it can't hurt me Give me silence, I'll make them quiet Can't think before you speak Then you'll learn quiet Muzzle the violent, force them to quiet I'll finally be free I'll rule the quiet And when I'm through Silence falls and I'm made anew Use your words, dear Oh, wait, you can't I can finally hear now that you've stopped talking At last, I hear me Give me silence, I'll make them quiet Can't think before you speak Then you'll learn quiet Muzzle the violent, force them to quiet I'll finally be free I'll rule the quiet Give me silence, I'll make them quiet Can't think before you speak Then you'll learn quiet Muzzle the violent, force them to quiet I'll finally be free I'll rule the quiet
