Silence Speaks

SILENCE SPEAKS - Written by Carroll Bryant

If a picture paints a thousand words

Then take a picture of the children

Capture their pain, suffering and hurt

And if silence speaks louder than words

Then everyone quiet down for the children

Listen to their pain, suffering and hurt

Little children, you have to hang on for one more day

Little children, you have to bow your head and pray

People understand

We have to serve their needs

Take a child by the hand - say nothing

Because silence speaks

Fear on their faces

Running human races

Death on their faces

And fate

We have to serve a purpose

Mankind is at stake

We have to serve a purpose

Fill their needs

Life is our fate

Silence speaks

Take a look around

Look at what we're tearing down

Tiny little hearts

Blown apart

Watch them weep

Because silence speaks

If a picture paints a thousand words

Then take a picture of the children

Capture their pain, suffering and hurt

And if silence speaks louder than words

Then everyone quiet down for the children

Listen to their pain, suffering and hurt

Little children, you have to hang on for one more day

Little children, you have to bow your head and pray

People understand

We have to serve their needs

Take a child by the hand - say nothing

Because silence speaks
