The Silent Song

Each night we plug in the stars

Right at the moment it gets dark

All interference fades away

We calm down when they light up

Any amazement it creates

Is the cherry on the cake

We have lost the skill to wait

It's strange to watch patience slowly die out

Now you're slowly growing tired

Of every question, every "why"

Don't be bothered to reply

A sigh says more than what you're saying out loud

We shout when we don't care to carry on

We talk when we agree to get along

We whisper when we're going strong

And silence is our bond

It feels like teasing love when we are quiet

It leaves a lot to say and that's alright

Impossible to sing along

With the silent song
