All this quiet is violence And I'm in denial of my nihilist icky tendencies As they make me tireless and Now I'm seeing a psychiatrist He put me on high alert Says my mind is riotous, a mental virus that Is gonna require us to break the silence Before the pressure makes me violent See, Iโm feeling like a lioness Pacing in the cage, a leviathan inside of this Fake environment, sick of being pious and Smiling through the pain for the bias and the higher-ups Yeah, itโs a matter of survival and Iโm waiting for revival and Iโm burning through the wire and I think I need a dial-up to God, 'cause the signalโs lost. Iโm swimming deep, and the waterโs getting shallow I got a shadow that I donโt know how to follow Yeah, the noise is loud... and the hush is hollow. So turn the volume up (Up) Yeah, turn the volume up (Up) 'Cause the quiet is violence Donโt leave me in the silence I need the noise, I need the sound To keep my feet here on the ground Yeah, turn the volume up Before the quiet wakes the violence up. Okay, look. Iโm getting mathematical, purely fanatical Trying to fix a brain that feels a little mechanical My thoughts are radical, strictly piratical Stealing all my peace like a thief, itโs dramatical I need a sabbatical, a permanent vacation From the over-stimulation and the constant fixation On the empty space, the isolation Iโm hyper-focused on the lack of conversation Checking my vitals and Whatever the title is Iโm facing my rivals and Iโm ending the idleness. Iโm swimming deep, and the waterโs getting shallow I got a shadow that I donโt know how to follow Yeah, the noise is loud... And the hush is hollow. So turn the volume up (Up) Yeah, turn the volume up (Up) Because the quiet is violence Donโt leave me in the silence I need the noise, I need the sound To keep my feet here on the ground Yeah, turn the volume up Before the quiet wakes the violence up. Shhh... Donโt say a word. Thatโs when the monsters serve The thoughts I donโt deserve. So strike the match, and watch it burn! So turn the volume up (Up) Yeah, turn the volume up (Up) Because the quiet is violence Donโt leave me in the silence I need the noise, I need the sound To keep my feet here on the ground Yeah, turn the volume up Before the quiet wakes the violence up. (The quiet is violence...) Yeah, Iโm seeing a psychiatrist. (The quiet is violence...) I'm trying to get pious. Turn it up. Turn it up.
