Lyrics The Flower Kings

The Flower Kings

Silent Inferno

Quarter to four & the hours keep draggin' tonight

Nothing is wrong but you feel that your life ain't quite right

All the plans you made those years ago

Looking back on that dusty road

and the fading signs all read "oblivion"

Stare at the ceiling, the wheelin' and dealin' begin

You'll give almost anything now for some real peace within

Halfway down our faces frown

knowing more but still unshure

All them missed opportunities

fading hearts and aching bookends

Quarter to four and there's someting odd building inside

Swimming the silence, the river is dark, warm and wide

Floating the chambers the echoes start filling your head

Finally fading until you don't know if you're dead........

Quarter to four and the thoughts keep spinning your mind

Don't dig too deep cause you may not like what you'll find

Caught between what you're expected to and what is really you

Could you have played your cards differently ?
