Rhythms without meaning Endless words are driving me insane Ears constantly deceiving I saw the thing that I became Listen not to opinions aired But rather to the words unspoken The gold is not in those who preach But silence, it should be your token Chorus: Shut up when you're speaking to me What you can't hear is better Than that which you can't see Shut up when you're speaking to me What I imagine is so much better Than that which I can be To hear nothing and listen Is a trait we all should learn Instead we hear all Without listening to all who yearn Ancient tales are told throughout Yet the world never complies They tell of all to be avoided Yet the people still believe in lies Chorus The riches, they lie in silence The treasures which remain unfound But earth's gold is all we seek So to these we remain bound Shut up, shut up Shut up when you're speaking to me

Death Of Me

By Annabel Chima


This lyric highlights the dark side of the human consciousness, speaking about 'self' in 3rd person in verse 1, almost as a separate entity. The lyrics symbolise how unrequited love is as good as the death of 'self' but so is a love/romance that fails - heartbreak. As humans, we tend to blame others for the way we feel, rather than accepting our own faults and self-power. The vibes and atmosphere of this lyric are very foreboding, gloomy, wistful and signify 'hopelessness'. You're guaranteed a moved and emotional audience. It fits perfectly into most genres.

20's Money

By Mustang Z


20's Money is about money and the decade that starts at 2020. It's lyrics that flirt with different ways in which money from the 2020 era is either earned or spent, legal or illegal, with who and where. 20's money includes the power of money, the chase of money and so forth. The lyrics are great for an artist who can use the lyrics to visualize how money in the modern era of the 2020 decade can be creatively expressed.
