His silhouette lingers And still I have yet to let him know A metal through his fingers Is the only bond That keeps us Close I've tried to move from it But his mark finds wherever I go Believing I've lost it There in my mind Lives his ghost What turns your back when you sense someone's broke in? What makes you laugh when you see it's an old friend? Who burns your past when your future is frozen? Who breathes their last whilst being unnoticed? All silence is golden All silence is golden All silence is golden All silence is golden You're on the run now Under the gun of someone's scope The line won't catch up to you, no It only burns a thinner rope But I'm so proud of how You've escaped every beaten road No matter how this turns out I will know You played it cut and cold What turns your back when you sense someone's broken? What makes you laugh when you see it's an old friend? Who burns your past when your future is frozen? Who breathes their last whilst being unnoticed? All silence is golden All silence is golden All silence is golden All silence is golden

All Silence Is Golden
His silhouette lingers And still I have yet to let him know A metal through his fingers Is the only bond That keeps us Close I've tried to move from it But his mark finds wherever I go Believing I've lost it There in my mind Lives his ghost What turns your back when you sense someone's broke in? What makes you laugh when you see it's an old friend? Who burns your past when your future is frozen? Who breathes their last whilst being unnoticed? All silence is golden All silence is golden All silence is golden All silence is golden You're on the run now Under the gun of someone's scope The line won't catch up to you, no It only burns a thinner rope But I'm so proud of how You've escaped every beaten road No matter how this turns out I will know You played it cut and cold What turns your back when you sense someone's broken? What makes you laugh when you see it's an old friend? Who burns your past when your future is frozen? Who breathes their last whilst being unnoticed? All silence is golden All silence is golden All silence is golden All silence is golden
