Silence from Human by Dirk Diamond
It's a song about noise, internal and external. Thoughts, sounds around, and moments of finding some of those things insufferable, when striving to live as peacefully as possible. It's meaning stretches a little beyond that, but that's the general gist.

Lyrics
All I want
Is only peace and quiet
All I request is silence
All I’m asking for
Is a slice of time
I need to rest in silence
It’s all I’m ever really looking for
The only thing you’ll ever need to know
It’s like a bludgeon knocking through my door
One that’s headed in to break my core
It’s like a siren wailing through my head
So much noise and it just won’t relent
My mouth is twisted open by its scream
I need some silence just to silence me
All that I recall
Is a piercing noise
I recollect the madness
All they seem to know
Is how to scream
All I request is silence
It’s all I’m ever really looking for
The only thing you’ll ever need to know
It’s like a bludgeon knocking through my door
One that’s heading in to break my core
It’s like a siren wailing through my head
So much noise and it just won’t relent
My mouth is twisted open by its scream
I need some silence just to silence me
I’m crazy when it comes in my room
It’s like a poltergeist that’s rattling spoons
It’s like a live wire running up spine
A little whisper comes to burst my balloon
Because it builds and rings out a monsoon
It’s like a storm that’s tearing through my life
It’s all I’m ever really looking for
The only thing you’ll ever need to know
It’s like a bludgeon knocking through my door
One that’s headed in to wreck my core
It’s like a siren wailing through my head
So much noise and it just won’t relent
My mouth is twisted open by its scream
I need some silence just to silence me

I've been writing songs for a long time, because it's something I enjoy doing, and that's about it.
I get a lot out of being creative in this way, in much the same way others do in other respects.
This is me when I'm busy not doing my day to day job, and attending to everything else that crops up, a hobby that I'm more than happy to share, in some hope that something somewhere shines though!
