I listen for the silence... oh, day after day To hear it come, a rolling in... wave after wave I'm longing for the tranquil to sweap me away But the more I chase the silence, the more the thunder will stay! I can hear the echoes... Of the words that have been said From the dawn of our creation To the depth of our graves I will give my every penny, all the silver, all the cred To get the fucking roaring, out of my head Now the music stopped The curtain dropped The room is fading And the lightning goes When the silence closes in And I fear the light, I hear the night And I dread the whisper As I see the wall of silence closing in It hits me hard... it takes me far The sweet smell of boredom Gives piece of mind... when silence's rolling in Here it comes again... my dearest friend Desolation And I see the wall of silence closing in Here comes chaos crashing - evil notes I play Chords of fire and fashion - every single day Kings they dream of pity - I just want to rest See the sunken temples - 'fore I turn to ash In the tallest lighthouse - in the smallest crowd Oh, the purest silence - can become too loud Who can save me now, when the silence closes in?
