House of Silence ['99]

In the house of silence

In my dreams I met a girl
Somewhere down the river
She took me to an ancient house
She looked young but also wise
Something made me shiver
She was born dead and alive

And I could see
The ravens fly

In the house of silence
Far from here
Distant voices coming out of the air
The house of silence and of tears
Shadows dancing for a hundred years
And they cry

You can’t rescue me from silence
From the cage of time
You can’t rescue me from violence
And give me back the peace of mind

I saw her speak
But couldn’t hear
What the girl was saying
And sadness filled the misty night
Then I tried to hold her back
While she was slowly fading
And bitter sweet was her smile

And I could see
The ravens fly

In the house of silence
Far from here
Distant voices coming out of the air
The house of silence and of tears
Shadows dancing for a hundred years
And they cry

You can’t rescue me from silence
From the cage of time
You can’t rescue me from violence
And give me back the peace of mind

(Give me your love)

You can’t rescue me from silence
From the cage of time
You can’t rescue me from violence
And give me back the peace of mind

In the house of silence
Far from here
Distant voices coming out of the air
The house of silence and of tears
Shadows dancing for a hundred years
And they cry

In the house of silence
In the house of silence
In the house of silence
