The Gift Of Silence

(album: Orphans - 2019)

I've had all I can take
To hate for hate's sake
Tearing down what you cannot create

The time has come to be put to sleep
A gift of silence for a herd of sheep

Nature is red in tooth and claw
Did they tell you you must be
The first without a flaw?

Nature is red (Is red)
In tooth (In tooth)
And in claw

Let it rain, rain all over me
'Til the water will no longer bleed
Oh, let it rain so you will see
What it's like, what it's like to be free

I stand before dangerous territory
Staring the enemy right in the eye

If only I could cross the line
Seize control, don't let the currents divide

The pattern is equal
For those who play the game
The pattern is flawless
Don't you dare deny the blame

Let it rain, rain all over me
'Til the water will no longer bleed
Oh, let it rain so you will see
What it's like, what it's like to be free

Let it rain, pour it all over me
I will shed my scales into the sea
Let it rain, pour it all over me
I will sit there and let you repeat
'Til your words will no longer bleed

Let it rain, rain all over me
'Til the water will no longer bleed
Oh, let it rain so you will see
What it's like, what it's like to be free
