Silent Scream

Twenty four and he believes for sure he’s got it made

Fame is here for good and looks will never fade

He doesn’t know

The game is never over ’till the cards have all been played

Eighty three and still he feels his best is yet to come

He believes that youth is wasted on the young

He’s alone

The only dream he ever has is being with someone

Chorus:

Love you when you’re standing tall

But nobody knows you when you’re falling

All you have to do is call

But nobody ever hears the silent scream

Christmas came and went again but still nobody came

Staring at her wedding photo in a frame

She’s alone

We should hope the loss of memory helps to ease the pain

Love you when you’re standing tall

But nobody knows you when you’re falling

All you have to do is call

But nobody ever hears the silent scream

Memories, moments you recall

We should be remembered for the greatest of them all

You can’t begin to live someone else’s life

Or you’re own will pass you by

Oh, who’s to know

Maybe we can learn a thing or two from everyone

Love you when you’re standing tall

But nobody knows you when you’re falling

All you have to do is call

But nobody ever hears the silent scream
