SILENT WORDS






SILENT WORDS





An uneasy feeling is spreading over me
Something`s the matter but don`t know what it could be,
It is a gut feeling that is ever so strong
Telling me instinctively that something is wrong.





Feel I`m being told something tho` no words are said
This thing is causing me a whole lot of dread,
`Actions speak louder than words` so they say
I`ve got an awful feeling this could be a bad day.


         


When the `phone should ring yet silence fills the air
The act of not ringing could show that they don`t care,
But when the `phone rings when you`re not expecting it to
That is an action that can stop you from feeling blue.





Actually, saying `nothing` speaks volumes to me
Things are being hidden that I`m not supposed to see,
So silently I`m being told `something` that will cause me pain
Those silent words, unspoken, they strike again.
