Richard Marx - Silent Scream Lyrics






Twenty four and he believes for
Sure he's got it made
Fame is here for good and
Looks will never fade
He doesn't know
The game is never over 'till
The cards have all been played

Eighty three and still he feels
His best is yet to come
He believes that youth is
Wasted on the young
He's alone
The only dream he ever has
Is being with someone

[Chorus:]
Love you when your standing tall
But nobody knows you when your falling
All you have to do is call
But nobody ever hears the silent scream

Christmas came and went again
But still nobody came
Staring at her wedding photo in a frame
She's alone
We should hope the loss of memory
Helps to ease the pain

[Chorus]

Memories, moments you recall
We should be remembered for the
Greatest of them all
You can't begin to live someone
Else's life
Or you're own will pass you by

Oh, who's to know
Maybe we can learn a thing or
Two from everyone

[Chorus]

    What a great song and a great message. We should appreciate the older people in the world. They can tell stories about the past history books can't teach. My Grandparents have past away and, I miss them everyday especially around the holiday season.

    I love how Richard Marx does a different kind of song like this. I miss all my grandparents so much, they have all passed away now, and my family seems to be scattered to the winds now.

  21. A.... W....

    Beautiful song. I've always had a love for the elderly. Even people who aren't considered elderly, are lonely. I've noticed that some of my older friends whose kids have grown up are very lonely. We can't forget them. Cherish those memories. Also don't don't forget who you are & don't let your own life pass you by.

  22. C.... R....

    Fantástica essa música. Linda demais.

    So nice to see such a clear version of this video- I have an old VHS tape with it on it, and I never got to read the text at the end. So beautiful. I was raised by my grandparents, so it strikes quite a chord with me in a lot of ways. Thank you so much for sharing.

    Another great Richard Marx song that touches those who really listen. Fantastic message Richard. Thanks for the reminder that we all need to cherish those in our lives and truly value those who have forged the path for us.

My own has passed me by.. Thank you for that message.. And yes Our seniors mean alot to me, as I am working the nursing field.. It's a shame not too many people are willing to care for them.. Beautiful.Video... Wish you continued success.. God Bless.. :) Peace..
