Lyrics:
this is in my heart
no matter how hard i fight to defend
no matter how much that I have to bleed
refuse and resist everything
we’ve gone through trials it makes us who we are
we’ve been through struggles no forced sincerity
there’s nothing they can change
withstanding anything
your enemies are mine
we fight and we prevail
In all our times of struggle refuse to fail
we’re Family from the start
It’s you I hold right in my heart
We’ve gone through struggles it makes us who we are
We stand together no false sincerity
There’s nothing we would change
United, together, today!
Your enemies are mine!
we fight and we prevail
In times of struggle refuse to fail

More about the band:
With several multi-talented musicians hailing from diverse in their musical backgrounds and interests, SILENCE EQUALS DEATH keeps their writing process fresh and innovative. Lyrically the group finds it important to address social issues as well as using the platform to connect with listeners on a more personal level. On their anticipated full-length debut, End Times, vocalist Scott Earth confronts deep personal issues such the loss of a loved one on the song “Devotion,” and puts out a rallying cry of revolt on the songs “End Times” and “Peacemaker.” “Common Ground” celebrates the unity between the band and its fans, while “Hope” screams of perseverance in the face of adversity.
