[Verse 1] Silence Silence everywhere The walls listen To my breath Clocks Ticking like footsteps That don't come And yet haunt me [Chorus] Silence Silence everywhere Silence consumes my blood Silence is more unbearable than noise Tear this peace from my chest Silence Away from my rooms Where is the sign That calls me? The sign will be there Silence will be a fool (hey!) [Verse 2] Shadows Standing like questions On the ceiling Above my bed Lips Forming prayers But no sound Finds the courage [Bridge] Has heaven forgotten me? Or is it just holding its breath? I hear my heart scratching at doors Until finally someone can tear them open [Chorus] Silence Silence everywhere Silence consumes my blood Silence is more unbearable than noise Tear Leave this peace from my breast Silence Escape from my rooms Where is the sign That calls me? The sign will be there Silence will be a fool (oh yes)
