|
Heart in a bottle, high on a shelf, fragile but just out of reach |
|
'Cause you build a fortress with the distance you keep |
|
But when your heart aches, doesn't it cut deep? |
|
Chorus: |
|
Well, you don't have to suffer, suffer in silence |
|
You don't have to suffer, suffer in silence |
|
Don't you know that your heart can feel like an anchor |
|
When you keep it all inside |
|
No don't, don't suffer in silence. |
|
Withered with sadness, hurting inside |
|
But feeling afraid to impose |
|
So you're an island, but you don't have to be |
|
'Cause if you're inclined you can talk to me. |
|
But, you don't have to suffer, suffer in silence |
|
You don't have to suffer, suffer in silence |
|
Oh, I know that the pain can seem like an ocean but I'm just a word away |
|
No don't, don't suffer in silence. |
|
I'll be your shelter, I'll be your retreat |
|
I'll be your shield against the wind |
|
So, if you need a shoulder for the tears that you keep |
|
Let it come down, let it rain on me. |
|
'Cause, you don't have to suffer, suffer in silence |
|
You should never have to suffer, suffer in silence |
|
Oh, I will hear when you're calling like a voice above the storm |
|
No don't, don't suffer in silence. |
|
Chorus: |
|
Well, you don't have to suffer, suffer in silence |
|
You don't have to suffer, suffer in silence |
|
Don't you know that your heart can feel like an anchor |
|
When you keep it all inside |
|
No don't, don't suffer in silence... |
