Silence

[Intro] In quietness, I seek to dwell (to dwell, to dwell, to dwell, to dwell, to dwell, to dwell). [Verse] Silence brings a somber spell It happens to us, it's not rare When noise fades and voices quell Alone is what no one can bear Silence soothes the nerves so well Bored to sleep, without a care When out of ideas to sell You accept what you can't repair. Sometimes silence is a need Yet often, it's sorrow, a lack Something inside begins to bleed For sound, my heart starts to crack. [Chorus] Sound shapes the fate of all mankind With it, everything's defined Voice leads, leaving none behind In understanding, we're combined Sounds govern how we're inclined Living without them leaves us blind But noise is not what I seek to find In silence, peace of mind. [Verse] Next door, a neighbor's bass pounds An alarm rings close around Cats over scraps, they're battleground A crash, a vehicle's impound I wished for noise, now silence astounds I crave quiet, a soothing sound Once peaceful, now my ears rebound Painful echoes, they confound. Sleep escaped, I lie awake Though rest is what I yearn to take Noise shatters my mind, it's no fake I close the window, dreams remake! [Chorus] Sound shapes the fate of all mankind With it, everything's Verse] When quiet reigns, noise takes flight Sometimes boredom leads to night Sadness seeps, a common plight Then silence is not quite right But when noise invades with might Silence is what I invite Headaches come, sleep says goodnight Nerves in tatters, I fight the fight. Sometimes silence is a need Yet often, it's something we plead When noise erupts, my head will heed Silence is what I must feed. Sometimes silence is a need Yet often, it's something we plead When noise erupts, my head will heed Silence I must have, to sleep indeed! [End] [end]
