Silent Wars
Copyright © 2017 words and music by Dean Batstone

Your cold eyes could peel the paint off these old walls
When we’re this low, I guess we ain’t got far to fall
Watching our troubles multiplying
We’re both bleeding, but no one’s dying

Silent wars are hard to fight
Your best weapon is not sayin’ goodnight
You wake up to a battle that’s still ragin’
But you’ve forgotten why
‘Cause it’s a silent war
No one’s sayin’…..

These lips that used to kiss shoot angry words
Like bullets aimed at causing the most hurt
Wounded pride’s not the best healer
Or silence ever called The Great Revealer

These silent wars are hard to fight
Your best weapon is not sayin’ goodnight
You wake up to a battle that’s still ragin’
But you’ve forgotten why
‘Cause it’s a silent war
No one’s sayin’…..

Silent wars no one wins
As we count each others sins
Silence used to mean our sweet reunion
Not retreat from a love that we’re both losin’

These silent wars are hard to fight
Your best weapon is not sayin’ goodnight
You wake up to a battle that’s still ragin’
But you’ve forgotten why
‘Cause it’s a silent war
No one’s sayin’….

If pride’s your gun
You best lay it down
The only battle won
In a silent war
Is who’s crying now….
