Would have seemed like a choir's rejoice
If silence is a rare drink
I'm parched with thirst
I want to drown in waters
I need to quench this thirst
No need for pregnant pauses

Silence is our saviour
Or haven't you heard?

Danger in a crowd
Your lips are sealed
You're saying nothing
But the trouble is, you're saying it too loud
I hear only silence now
I hear only silence now
I hear only silence now
I hear only
