The Silence

Was it something that we did

To turn your back on us forever

And yeah, that would be unfair

Is this what you wanted

The silence (so deafening)it hurts

If you'd ever listen

You would hear it for yourself

Was it something that we did

To give us light and never guide us

To which direction we should go

And we need a miracle

Something biblical

So come down and take it out on us

Is this what you wanted

The silence (so deafening) it hurts

If you'd ever listen

You would hear it for yourself

Is that what you wanted

The silence (so deafening)

If you'd ever listen

You would hear it for yourself

And nothing says you love us

Quite like judgment

And nothing says you hear our cries

Quite like silence

I've seen enough of this in a lifetime

To know that I can't make a difference... then I guess I'll make a point

And I will repent

When the snake has bitten through my skin

And the poison has set in

Is this what you wanted

The silence (so deafening) it hurts

If you'd ever listen

You would hear it for yourself

Is this what you wanted

The silence (so deafening) it hurts

If you'd ever listen

You would hear it for yourself

Hear it for yourself

Hear it for yourself...
