Quiet Distress

[Verse 1]
How many times, how many lies
Does it take to demonstrate to change the apathy that’s ingrained?
The screams, the cries, behind the lies
The victim and the villainy, taking all your dignity

[Chorus]
Quiet distress covers scars and bruises
Quiet distress leaves us lost and desperate

[Verse 2]
Night after night, search for the light
Relive the fear and misery
Disguise the pain (The pain)
The blood will wash away (Wash away)
But the wounds still sing of your agony

[Chorus]
Quiet distress covers scars and bruises (Bruises)
Quiet distress we can’t afford indifference

[Bridge]
Hearing screams and cries, over and over again
Wash the blood away, over and over again
The victim (Over and over again)
Becomes the victor in the end

[Outro/Chorus]
Quiet distress (distress) won’t cover scars and bruises (Bruises)
Quiet distress leaves us lost and desperate (Desperate)
Quiet distress (Distress)
We can’t afford indifference
