The Other Side Of Silence

(album: No Change In The Weather - 2017)

I thought yeah this is the ending, will it go on
In a world where no one awakens struggled along

I laughed out loud, cleared my eyes and face,
And when I looked up I am so much older now,
With new determination and this sudden revelation
I can feel the eyes are on me, only staring at what they want to see…

Right now! Do you want to still hear me screaming
The words never mattered
I was born with this promise each night and day
It keeps me believing
You'd make a difference but you have to be the one who has a say
And later when it calls you, will you ever show your face
The other side of silence, not the place I want to be
Are we still denying

And we're stretched out over the future,
Can we hold on
If I awaken into this stillness, will I belong

We're taken back with all the things we've seen
And when it's over, we have still not seen it all
It's a growing generation somewhere
Lost in explanation
Let's not try to break the silence, only give them
What they want to see…

Right now! Do you want to still hear me screaming
The words never mattered
I was born with this promise each night and day
It keeps me believing
You'd make a difference but you have to be the one who has a say
And later when it calls you, will you ever show your face
The other side of silence, not the place I want to be
Are we still denying

Give and take all they want, the ending's not too far apart

As it turns around and the days shut down
We protect against, do you regret
And once again we stand alone, no one whispers
When it's gone, somewhat alive and confident
These heavy hands start to accept, do you regret, do you regret, do you regret
