I wake to the sun falling down on its face again
As the night comes back to end it all,
The night comes back to end it all.
The darkness makes this room seem gray
And suddenly the sound slips, falls away,
And then I’m left with the noise and all
My skin bleeds sweat as it crawls–
My fingers rusted red
Because I can’t take this silence again,
Silent cries, silent nights,
Silent tears, silent fights.
I wish I could break this silence away,
I wish without her I could feel okay–
Without her I can’t feel, okay.
And here we lie on either side
A line away I have to stay
A thousand miles
Let silence dance,
Let silence play
Where once I dreamed
And all that seemed too perfect for me
Are walls of memories burning,
And the flames make fall–it all.
It all falls around me now,
The walls fall,
Watch them crash on me.
Where am I now?
A mess of smoke, of gray,
No more flames,
They’ve left me now to feel alone,
They’ve gone somewhere
They’ve gone away.
Just me now, but all I see
Is all this heavy gray–
It stifles and stays: A void,
Away she stays.
I stay, a void.
I stay, a void.
I stay, I wait
For silence to suffocate itself
Again.
