Song lyrics
To my mother, to my father
It's your son or its your daughter
Are my screams loud enough 
For you to hear me?
Should I turn this up for you?

Chorus:
I sit here locked inside my head
Remembering everything you said
The silence gets us nowhere,
Gets us nowhere way too fast

The silence is what kills me
I need someone here to help me
But you don't know how to listen
And let me make my decisions

Chorus:
I sit here locked inside my head
Remembering everything you said
The silence gets us nowhere
Gets us nowhere way too fast

All your insults and your curses
Make me feel like I'm not a person
And I feel like I am nothing
But you made me, so do something
Cause I'm fucked up, because you are,
Need attention, 
Attention you couldn't give

Chorus:
Cause I sit here locked inside my head
Remembering everything you said
The silence gets us nowhere
Gets us nowhere way too fast

I sit here locked inside my head
Remembering everything you said
The silence gets us nowhere
Gets us nowhere way too fast

Love this song, especially because I often have been thinking the same things. Like most other teenagers have too.

Amazing song too..

Yes I agree this is one song that I along with I'm sure plenty of ppl can relate to that have or have had a screwed up childhood or relationship with thier family ...For a long time I have looked for a song that could describe what I go through and this nails it...How they dont have time for you and treat you like ur a bother and make u feel worthless..This song and Epiphany,Outside and It's Been Awhile are some of the best written in my opinion...

this is actually the first staind song ive ever heard and its so depressing because you can instantly tell what the guy is going through. the video also rules, i like how everybody just gets pissed at the end.

Describes how u must lock ur feelings inside yourself sometimes. But doesnt say how much that can hurt. Nice song anyway and awesome lyrics.
