In 'Silent Frontlines' by The Echoes of Dissent, the band dives into the raw, melancholic experiences of youth in a world where their voices are stifled, adults dictate right from wrong, and the true cost of war is borne by the unseen soldiers. This energetic yet contemplative track is an anthem for those who smile through the pain and speak truth through music.
Verse 1:
Smile through the pain, don't let them see
The cracks in the veneer, it's all they'll believe
Kids are always wrong in the eyes of the wise
With their books and their rules, their truth is lies
Chorus:
Silent frontlines, we suffer in disguise
We fight their wars, never see the prize
Silent frontlines, we scream to the night
But echoes fade, lost in the twilight
Verse 2:
Don't speak your mind, they'll turn you away
Trust their ancient laws, they're here to stay
Dreams are for the naive, reality's a cage
Crestfallen youth, lost in the rage
Chorus:
Silent frontlines, we suffer in disguise
We fight their wars, never see the prize
Silent frontlines, we scream to the night
But echoes fade, lost in the twilight
Bridge:
They write our history, with blood-soaked pens
We march their paths, it never ends
Beneath the surface, a storm brews inside
This battered heart, nowhere to hide
Chorus:
Silent frontlines, we suffer in disguise
We fight their wars, never see the prize
Silent frontlines, we scream to the night
But echoes fade, lost in the twilight
Outro:
Smile through the pain, we've learned to deceive
But one day, we'll rise, and they'll believe
Silent frontlines, no longer confined
Together we'll fight, we'll reclaim our minds

Beat not available
Smile through the pain, don't speak your mind, kids are always wrong the adults only right, wars are fought by people who never see the dime
