Written and recorded in his own bedroom, Salvatore uses his lyrics to display the necessity of speaking up in a verbally abusive relationship. In a time where more and more women are coming forth to tell their experiences with abuse, “When You’re Silent” seeks to encourage those in these situations...
[Verse]
Running down the street
Where I dropped you off last week
I think you’d murder me
If I let you speak or let you breathe
Chain me to the ground
I can’t get up and won’t get out
[Pre-Chorus]
So scream at the top of your lungs, I dare you
To let them know what’s wrong
Stop pretending its alright
One chance to say so long
[Chorus]
And when you’re silent, it makes him strong
When you’re silent, it makes him strong
[Refrain]
Been letting you shove me around
Don’t call for help or make a sound
He’s been pushing you down too long
[Pre-Chorus]
So scream from the top of your lungs, I dare you
To let them know what’s wrong
Stop pretending its alright
One chance to say so long
[Refrain]
Letting you shove me around
I called for help and made a sound
You pushed me around for way too long
[Chorus]
And when you’re silent It makes him strong
When you’re silent it makes him strong
[Pre-Chorus]
So scream from the top of your lungs I dare you
To let them know what’s wrong
Stop pretending its alright
One chance to say so long
[Chorus]
And when you’re silent, it makes him strong
When you’re silent, it makes him strong
[Outro]
When you’re silent, it makes him strong
When you’re silent, it makes him strong
