Lyrics
[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]
