Silent Hills

Although I like the sound of my own voice 

I like answers too

It's sad when it's only you 

Although I enjoy these silent nights 

I am fond of song 

When there's no music it's wrong

But all of these hills I keep climbing 

I keep climbing alone 

And all of the hills I am finding 

Have truly shown 

Shown me truth

Sometimes it's a silent climb 

And the hills are fine

But they don't speak back 

Sometimes it's a lonely climb 

But at the top I find 

I'm on the right track 

I don't need a cheering squad 

Or you to wish me well 

Silent hills are nothing to applaud 

But they aren't really hell

They're salvation in silence

Because I truly find my voice 

Melodies are found in patience 

And not having any choice

I kept climbing 

And finding 

The truth 

And although I like answers, too

At least my own voice is true
