Silence is golden, just like she
I loved her so why did she flee?
Oh please come back I need you here
I wish I did not overhear
Oh! That dreadful night, still too soon
Ten years ago in late June
Silence I asked, Silence I got
It all ended with my gunshot
Silence is golden, just like she
I loved her so why did she flee?
Oh please come back I need you here
I wish I did not overhear
“Mama and Papa, stop!” I yelled
Why does he make life a living hell
I asked you once, I’ll ask you twice
hit her again you’ll pay the price
He grabbed her arm and threw her down
that’s when I had a breakdown
Silence I asked, Silence I got
I picked it up and took the shot
The bullet sliced straight through the air
It was not meant for her, I swear
Like an ancient brick wall she fell
left without a single farewell
I'm not to blame, the gun killed her
the entire night was then a blurr
But don’t forget it wasn’t me
It was the damn gun, don't you see?
Mama was pure mama was mine
should be father’s face on the shrine
Mama was pure mama was mine
Daddy a drunk who drank too much wine

I spend my time behind these bars
With nothing left but my mental scars
An open wound left in my heart
only heaven keeps us apart
Silence is golden, just like she...
I loved her so why did she flee?
Oh please come back I need you here
I wish I did not overhear
