Silence

I'm a man of many words I write them, sing them, make a life out of them But there are times I don't want to talk I don't want to think I just want to be for a minute Nothing's wrong, I just need to get away (Chorus) Let the silence be loud Get away from the crowd Take a minute to breathe a little To think a little Life noise can drive me mad sometimes Right now, I just need to be still, let the quiet just take me away (Verse 2) My head's a constant symphony Ideas bouncing, a melody of me But even melodies need a sunset A pause between the notes, a quiet rest (Chorus) Let the silence be loud Get away from the crowd Take a minute to breathe a little To think a little Life noise can drive me mad sometimes Right now, I just need to be still, let the quiet just take me away (Bridge) The world won't stop, it never does But in the quiet, I find what I must A center, a ground, a place to stand Before I pick up my pen and start again (Chorus) Let the silence be loud Get away from the crowd Take a minute to breathe a little To think a little Life noise can drive me mad sometimes Right now, I just need to be still, let the quiet just take me away (Outro) In the hush, I find my voice again Stronger, clearer, ready to begin So let the silence be my friend Until the words all start to descend
