Silence Is Easy - Starsailor

When the calls and conversations Accidents and accusations Messages and misperceptions Paralyze my mind Busses, cars, and airplanes leaving Burning fumes of gasoline And everyone is running And I come to find a refuge in the Easy silence that you make for me It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me And the peaceful quiet you create for me And the way you keep the world at bay for me The way you keep the world at bay Monkeys on the barricades Are warning us to back away They form commissions trying to find The next one they can crucify And anger plays on every station Answers only make more questions I need something to believe in Breathe in sanctuary in the Easy silence that you make for me It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me And the peaceful quiet you create for me And the way you keep the world at bay for me The way you keep the world at bay Children lose their youth too soon Watching war made us immune And I've got all the world to lose But I just want to hold on to the Easy silence that you make for me It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me And the peaceful quiet you create for me And the way you keep the world at bay for me The easy silence that you make for me It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me And the peaceful quiet you create for me And the way you keep the world at bay for me The way you keep the world at bay for me The way you keep the world at bay

If I am silent Then I am not real If I speak up then No one will hear If I wear a mask there's Somewhere to hide Silence is golden I have been broken Safe in my own skin So nobody wins If I raise my voice Will someone get hurt? And if I can't feel Then I won't get touched If no truth is spoken Then no lies can hide Silence is golden I have been broken Safe in my own skin So nobody wins Silence is golden Nobody gets in Safe in my own skin So nobody wins Did you hear me speak Do you understand Did you hear my voice Will you hold my hand Do you understand me Won't someone listen? Nobody gets in My body's a temple But nothing is simple Silence is golden I have been broken Something was stolen Safe in my own skin Safe in my own skin Won't someone listen? My body's a temple But nothing is simple My body's a temple But nothing is simple Something was stolen I have been broken I have been broken Silence is golden I have been broken Safe in my own skin

Silence is distance words are lonely there's miles between your skin and mine, But when sin is just words, in your silence there's no crime. So fake all your love in choosing badly family with a lizards' eye, Oh and its making me ill and making me scared of how hard I'd try. Yes if you fake all your love dear Then there's nowhere you can't hide, But stay with me honey though it's safer inside. You looked so funny when you told me: the rumour strikes the heart of the lie. And I could taste it on the air, I could feel it on my spine. Oh and even though I drives me wild I couldn't blame you for having it straight in your mind: That two wrongs make a right, For using it as an excuse every time. But have you saved all your money? You could leave this town tonight. But if you come any nearer I'll only be a mirror for your spite.
