lyrics

Silent sounds you're making silent sounds
so don't you turn this around on me
he said that it was bound
to happen what we found
it nearly tore our the ground form neath our feet

give me screaming trumpets jazz trombones
fill my empty heart with saxophones
I know that you were not my own
I only had you out on loan

he said it's not worth it dear
keep your love right here
inside this open atmosphere he cannot see
absurdity

we're already pure
the human heart it does endure it's part
faced with the abyss it treads alone
but you were there by my side as something evil in me died
you watched the current toss around this river stone

tell me have you ever danced with demons
they say that thats the price for dreaming
but you will never see
how dark this human heart can be

he said I know it hurts you dear
but I'm proud of how you steer inside
the walls will crumble in now, hold on tight
and some day you'll see inside yourself
place your glasses on the shelf
and see that you've been living in the light
all this time
all that time

silent sounds you made the first silent sounds
so don't you turn this around on me
and now after this round of drinks
you try to shake my ground and think
you understand me consciousness as free

tell me where's the glimmer in the gold
does your beacon shine of should you've sold
you say moral conscious is a curse,
I'll tell you bout a life that's worse

don't tell me if it's over
don't advise me to let go
don't ask me to betray my past
for freshly fallen snow
you know

I say it's not worth it dear
I'll keep my love right here
inside this open atmosphere he cannot see
they never see never see
they never see
never see me
