about

Meant to be paired with "Why Did I Stay?", Micki XO's first single, "Silence" is a mellow, yet dark love song that brings you into the chaotic and evil world of domestic violence. The track shows you the haunting parts of abusive relationships: control, unpredictability, and fear. When someone tells you that they are "no good", do you heed their words and walk away; or, do you take a chance that may lead you to understand this song in a way you never thought possible?

lyrics

I can tell you're angry
In the silence
A cold is brewing
When you're quiet
The air around us is deathly still
Cigarette smoke as you go in for the kill

The day we met
You told me you were no good
And I fell hard
Just like you know I would
Like a fool
I couldn't see
You wanted control
You wanted to break me

Teardrops fall like acid rain
You promise you won't do it again

Tear drops fall
(Combine with each other)
Silence Speaks
(The truth of my lover)
I believe the words
(That hide the violence)
You say to me
(Silently)

Always swearing that
You'll atone
After painting me a dangerous
Palette tone
The toxic air
Continues to grow
Because I'm too afraid
To be alone

Teardrops fall like acid rain
You promise you won't do it again

Tear drops fall
(Combine with each other)
Silence Speaks
(The truth of my lover)
I believe the words
(That hide the violence)
You say to me
(Silently)

Tear drops fall
(Combine with each other)
Silence Speaks
(The truth of my lover)
I believe the words
(That hide the violence)
You say to me
(Silently)

Tear drops fall
(Combine with each other)
Silence Speaks
(The truth of my lover)
I believe the words
(That hide the violence)
You say to me
(Silently)
