Lyrics
(Nothing but silence)
Late at night had a sinking feeling
That you were right sayin' I'm not seeing
All the lies that I made myself believe
That seemed to divide us
Once in my life moving on towards something
I realized it was all for nothing
Wonder why every good thing has to end
In nothing but silence
I'm trying but I can't find
A way to let you know that
I'm dying on the inside
The feeling sets in in the silence
In the silence
In the silence
In the silence
(In the silence)
Pressing through the paradoxes
One door opens, another locks it
Shrinking walls of freedom's fantasies (fantasies)
My gravity spins off its axis
Fever dream phantoms of your absence
Fading frames to cold geometry (geometry)
I'm trying but I can't find
A way to let you know that
I'm dying on the inside
The feeling sets in in this silence
In the silence
In the silence
In the silence
(In the silence)
The feeling sets in in the silence
