In silence there is peace
From your damned words
What would you say to me anyway
Except more you wish things were different
Whereas my silence is all you ever want changed
In silence there is peace
From your damned words
What would you say to me anyway
Except more you wish things were different
Whereas my silence is all you ever want changed
And if I was a true poet I would be able
To put into prettier words the translation
Your hair makes of the breeze
As though God herself were trying to tell me
I am here, and she is here because I am here for you.
This god damn sunset
Won't it just fall already
So that the people will scatter
And have to face how dark it really is out there
Only then can they really relate to me, or I to them
It began not with the big bang
But with dew gently caressing the leaf
Just as life starts when you open your eyes
Not when the clock strikes minute one
And it will end before the clock finds out too
You would have been beautiful
In any era in any land
To possess you for myself would
Be a crime to the public domain
From what well then would the artist drink
Who am I, but the person
I kept secret in my youth
And voiced in my maturity
While defined by the opposite
When do we choose our identity
The party is winding down
And has been for years
Some friends left without you knowing
Grown tired of sleeping through sunrises
Evermore tired of star-gazing from below
