Do you hear that?
The sound of the silence breaking with her cries.
Try and block it out, it’s still there when you close your eyes.
It won’t go away, all those things you block from your mind.
The memories will find you, even when you think you’ve left them behind.
You turned away and did nothing as her back hit the wall.
One foot after another, you did not catch her fall.
Her tears fell on icy floors as your cold heart turned away.
It’s her whispered plea that haunts you still to this day.
Did you think you could escape the look in her eyes?
The fear screaming out to you, the bruises she tired to disguise?
She called to you in her hour of need, and you chose not to hear.
You just kept on walking, thinking your conscious would be clear.
How clear is it when you toss and turn deep into the night?
Knowing how different things would be had you done what was right.
She’d be smiling somewhere out there, healing from her past.
Instead of you remembering the breath that turned out to be her last.
You turned away and did nothing as her back hit the wall.
One foot after another, you did not catch her fall.
Her blood fell on icy floors as your cold heart turned away.
It’s her whispered plea that haunts you still to this day.
Go on and cry your selfish tears, pray for God to forgive your slight.
Keep on hoping that someday that picture will be driven from your sight.
It’ll always be there, her body being lowered into the ground.
The dropping of a tomb is such an empty sound.
You turned away and did nothing as her back hit the wall.
One foot after another, you did not catch her fall.
Her body fell on icy floors as your cold heart turned away.
It’s her whispered plea that haunts you still to this day.
It’s her whispered plea that will haunt you every day…
