Silence is a stranger that I've never let inside I hear him knocking, but I do not dare reply God knows what he would say if I opened up my door I'll keep up this clamor so he can't tell me the score.
Solitude's an old friend from the other side of town When he comes across the river I pretend I'm not around HIs voice brings me comfort and his counsel's always wise But I can't stand to face the disappointment in his eyes
Quiet, come another time Isn't on my side I need to look alive
Suffering, my mother, she has loved me since my youth Never have I wondered if her teaching wasn't true When she speaks, she whispers gently, never does she shout Sometimes when I'm weary, it feels good to drown her out
Quiet, come another time Isn't on my side Give me a reason why I should let it lie I need to look alive
Stillness is a woman I'm too cowardly to kiss A hallowed thing too holy for my unclean lips She told me she loved me, but I ran away and hid I'm convinced she'd do the same if she saw beneath my skin
Quiet, I'm listening this time I need you on my side I'm out of reasons why Can't keep up this fight I want to feel aliveTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
