The Other Side Of Silence

I thought yeah this is the ending, will it go on

In a world where no one awakens struggled along

I laughed out loud, cleared my eyes and face,

And when I looked up I am so much older now,

With new determination and this sudden revelation

I can feel the eyes are on me, only staring at what they want to see…

Right now! Do you want to still hear me screaming

The words never mattered

I was born with this promise each night and day

It keeps me believing

You'd make a difference but you have to be the one who has a say

And later when it calls you, will you ever show your face

The other side of silence, not the place I want to be

Are we still denying

And we're stretched out over the future,

Can we hold on

If I awaken into this stillness, will I belong

We're taken back with all the things we've seen

And when it's over, we have still not seen it all

It's a growing generation somewhere

Lost in explanation

Let's not try to break the silence, only give them

What they want to see…

Right now! Do you want to still hear me screaming

The words never mattered

I was born with this promise each night and day

It keeps me believing

You'd make a difference but you have to be the one who has a say

And later when it calls you, will you ever show your face

The other side of silence, not the place I want to be

Are we still denying

Give and take all they want, the ending's not too far apart

As it turns around and the days shut down

We protect against, do you regret

And once again we stand alone, no one whispers

When it's gone, somewhat alive and confident

These heavy hands start to accept, do you regret, do you regret, do you regret
