The Arcadian Wild - Silence, A Stranger şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: The Arcadian Wild

albüm: Finch In The Pantry


Silence is a stranger that I've never let inside
I hear him knocking, but I do not dare reply
God knows what he would say if I opened up my door
I'll keep up this clamour so he can't tell me the score
Solitude's an old friend from the other side of town
When he comes across the river I pretend I'm not around
His voice brings me comfort and his counsel's always wise
But I can't stand to face the disappointment in his eyes
Quiet, come another time
Isn't on my side
I need to look alive
Suffering, my mother, she has loved me since my youth
Never have I wondered if her teaching wasn't true
When she speaks, she whispers gently, never does she shout
But sometimes when I'm weary, it feels good to drown her out
Quiet, come another time
Isn't on my side
Give me a reason why
I should let it lie
I need to look alive
Stillness is a woman I'm too cowardly to kiss
A hallowed thing to hold before my unclean lips
She told me she loved me but I ran away and hid
I'm convinced she'd do the same if she saw beneath my skin
Quiet, I'm listening this time
I need you on my side
I'm out of reasons why
I can't keep up this fight
I want to feel alive
