Lyrics
Because the Silence
An urge to speak to fill the spaces
A maze of veils, that crowds the room
Best if you blend in with the shadows
Mouths fail expression, fail the dream
But the silence tells it all
One glance from the eyes
And the charade is over
Because the silence
Urge to speak to fill the spaces
Maze of veils that hide the faces
Fail the dream
Best to blend in with the shadows
Mouths fail expression, speak from shallow
Trickle streams
Wouldn't know me if you tried
Cause all you wanna hear is lies
I die to have you
After all, what's it all about
Just chill, don't let those colors out
Just lay low and feed me lies
But the silence tells it all
One glance from the eyes to the eyes
And the charade is over
Because the silence
As if too lonely to hear our own pulse
The rise and falling of our chest
Break in distraction, and we're left
With our throbbing universe
Hear the pulse break in distraction
When our Soul's the main attraction
This throb is real
Posture big, yeah posture tall
A pokerface will hide it all
But soon, your hand's revealed
But the silence tells it all
One glance from the eyes to the eyes
To the eyes
One glance from the eyes to the eyes
And the charade is over
Because the silence
