Verse:
- -
Light up a cigarette to kill time
*
Pacing this floor another dozen times
If there was someway to express it otherwise
I would
- -
Fed up of fighting over crumbs and dust
*
Don’t have to be this way, a hollow trust
If we could find some way to make it right
- *
We would, we would
Chorus:
(Mute)
And then
The silence came
-*
There was not a word to say
One hour felt like a day
-*
When the silence came
We felt it on our bodies
-*
No way to turn it around
One hour felt like a day
When the silence came
- *
When the silence came
Can’t hear nothing but the dripping from the tap
Blowing kisses no one will grab
Need to organise this life that we have
If we could
God knows what we have sacrificed
Guess we deserve the days of our lives
Wish we could learn how to let things slide away
Just for a day
And then
The silence came
There was not a word to say
One hour felt like a day
When the silence came
We felt it on our bodies
No way to turn it around
One hour felt like a day
When the silence came
When the silence came
When the silence came
God knows what we have sacrificed
Guess we deserve the days of our lives
Wish we could learn how to let things slide
For a day
And then
The silence came
There was not a word to say
One hour felt like a day
When the silence came
We felt it on our bodies
No way to turn it around
One hour felt like a day
When the silence came
When the silence came
When the silence came
Then the silence came
Yes it came.
