  • 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

    Quiet distress covers scars and bruises
    Quiet distress leaves us lost and desperate

    Night after night, search for the light
    Relive the fear and misery
    Disguise the pain
    The blood will wash away
    But the wounds still sing of your agony

    Quiet distress covers scars and bruises
    Quiet distress we can't afford indifference
    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

    Quiet distress won't cover scars and bruises
    Quiet distress leaves us lost and desperate
    Quiet distress we can't afford indifference Writer/s: ADAM DUTKIEWICZ, JESSE LEACH, JOEL STROETZEL, JUSTIN FOLEY, MIKE D'ANTONIO
