Silence Is The Enemy
papa roach Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Because you hate it when I speak my mind
I suffer through but it feels so messed up
Like my opinion is a waste of time
We never wanted it to be this way
They never listen to a word we say
So scream your heart out
You got to show them
Silence is the enemy
Scream it out loud
We are the broken
We got to show them
Silence is the enemy
You take your needles and sow my mouth shut
But you will never hear the last of me
This is the reason why we’re all so fucked up
You are the reason why we don’t believe
We never wanted it to be this way
They never listen to a word we say
So scream your heart out
You are the chosen
You got to show them
Silence is the enemy
Scream it out loud
We are the broken
We got to show them
Silence is the enemy
Scream it out loud
Silence is the enemy
Scream it out loud
Silence is the enemy
You got to show them
Silence is the enemy
Scream your heart out
You are the chosen
You got to show them
Silence is the enemy
Scream it out loud
We are the broken
We got to show them
Silence is the enemy
Scream it out loud
Silence is the enemy
Scream it out loud
Silence is the enemy
Scream it out loud
Silence is the enemy
The lyrics of "Silence Is The Enemy" by Papa Roach express the idea of speaking out and not being silenced by those who try to suppress our voice. The song talks about being forced to keep quiet and not expressing our opinions and thoughts, even if they are essential or right. The artist talks about the frustration and the feeling of helplessness when our voice is ignored or silenced, and no one hears what we have to say.
The song addresses the fact that when we remain silent, we allow the world's problems to continue, and nothing changes. It creates a sense of urgency to speak out and be heard, to make a stand against injustice and to fight for what we believe in. The repeated chorus "Scream it out loud. You are the chosen. You got to show them. Silence is the enemy" encourages people to speak out courageously.
In summary, "Silence Is The Enemy" by Papa Roach is a motivational anthem that encourages listeners to find their voice and speak out against injustice, oppression, and silence. This song reminds us that our voice is a valuable asset, and we must not let anyone silence it.

I know you wanted me to keep my mouth shut
You don't like it when I speak up, but I won't stay silent
Because you hate it when I speak my mind
You don't like me expressing myself
I suffer through but it feels so messed up
I endure this treatment but it's unpleasant
Like my opinion is a waste of time
My thoughts and feelings are insignificant to you
We never wanted it to be this way
We didn't ask for this situation
They never listen to a word we say
Our perspective is consistently ignored
So scream your heart out
Speak passionately and with conviction
You are the chosen
You are the one with the power to make a change
You got to show them
It's up to you to prove a point
Silence is the enemy
Being quiet and avoiding confrontation doesn't solve anything
We are the broken
We are the ones who have been hurt and affected by this situation
You take your needles and sew my mouth shut
You forcibly silence me and try to prevent me from speaking
But you will never hear the last of me
I won't stop speaking up and making my voice heard
This is the reason why we’re all so fucked up
This is the cause of our current distress and turmoil
You are the reason why we don’t believe
You have caused us to lose faith and trust
Scream it out loud
Make your voice heard and refuse to stay quiet

I am the voice of those afraid to speak,
Those of us that society calls weak...
Those you ridicule everyday,
The ones who have nothing to say...
We have feelings too, okay??
I am the voice of those alone,
The ones abandoned and on their own...
The ones who hide their pain in their eyes,
Those who you never saw cry...
Those of us you just pass by...
I am the voice of us you forget,
The ones of us society regrets...
Though you see us you don't care,
Whether or not we are here...
And us, like shadows, slowly disappear.....

I love this song. But Not That Beautiful and Give Me Back My Life, on the album, are better.
