February 18, 2017 If I’m beating every hand awayNo one staysI’ve got so cautiousAnd now I trip on every move I makeLet one playTo be that carelessWith every kiss from a friendWith everything I pretend not to feelAm I too high? Am I too proud?Is the music too loud for me to hear?Now I go outBut every beat is a violent noiseDries my eyeWith every beat comes a violent noiseThe melody sungAnd I don’t know the voiceNow I go outBut every beat is a violent noiseYou’ve been staying out lateTrying your best to escapeI hope you find what you’re looking forLet a moment take placeWithout running awayI hope you silence the noiseHow could eyes this wideLose sight of a world outside?I’ve looked away, cowardiceWith every kiss from a friendWith everything I pretend not to feelAm I too high? Am I too proud?Is the music too loud for me to hear?Now I go outBut every beat is a violent noiseDries my eyeWith every beat comes a violent noiseThe melody sungAnd I don’t know the voiceNow I go outBut every beat is a violent noise Oliver Sim
