A shield of silence

Right now all I can do
Is spit words out of fire
And I try to make them as strong
As I always thought they were
But for the first time in my life
They aren\'t even close to enough
They loop back and hit me in the head
This amount of sadness crushes the brave
So while we wrestle with reality 
In all of its violence
All I\'ve found, what works for me
Is drowning in silence.
