Fire on the ocean Reprisal in motion From the quiet awake The sins of the father Are hitting me harder Every strike I take Oh! Oh! The silence is deafening... Oh! Oh! Don't say a word The venom inside us Strives to deny us Just a moment's peace From ocean to land we Are learning to stand on Our own two feet Not to be heard Don't say a word Restrain... Cut out the phrase Only a haze Remains... Oh! Oh! The silence is deafening... Oh! Oh! Don't say a word These syllables slither Like snakes in the sand... These words they will wither The world in your hands You are the voice in the song yeah It's yours when you sing along... Oh! Oh! The silence is deafening... Oh! Oh! Don't say a word You are the voice in the song, yeah It's yours when you sing along...

I see your mouth moving But there's a circus coming out Always busy proving What the world is all about It's no use looking you in the eye I don't believe a word you say Blame it on hard living Blame it on the times Blame it on the victims All stumbling behind I don't even need to look you in the eye I don't believe a word you say Don't know what to do without you Don't know what to do with you Used to look at you with wonder Now I look at you and wonder I can't even look you in the eye I don't believe a word you say
