A Sad Silence
(专辑: Question The Answers - 1994)
Two years and extra days A
block away, he'd head to hang Same corner, neighborhood His friends, the
gang Two years and extra days A
bigger kid would crack his eye No real reason, explanation And everyday no one knew why The
bigger kid was crazy That made the
gang afraid When he told the
gang to shut their mouths The
gang obeyed You've got to have a
place to be You need a
place to hang around No one spoke, no one moved No one made a
sound! Both his eyes would twitch (No one spoke, no one moved) The
left one was always black (No one made a
sound) His lips, they never moved (A sad silent situation) They stayed still with each attack (No, he's not around) His ears were always ringing (No one spoke, no one moved) In his head he'd hear a
hum (No one made a
sound) And all the
kids on the
corner (A sad silent situation) Knew what it was from (No, he's not around) Well, then one day it happened He took his daily crack His eyes rolled up, like yesterday He started falling back The
kids that watch this every day Now watched him hit the
ground No one spoke, no one moved No one made a
sound! And no one made a
sound Both his eyes would twitch (No one spoke, no one moved) The
left one was always black (No one made a
sound) His lips, they never moved (A sad silent situation) They stayed still with each attack (No, he's not around) His ears were always ringing (No one spoke, no one moved) In his head he'd hear a
hum (No one made a
sound) And all the
kids on the
corner (A sad silent situation) Knew what it was from (No, he's not around) No one spoke, no one moved, no one made a
sound A
sad silent situation, now he's not around No one spoke, no one moved, no one made a
sound A
sad silent situation, now he's not around Well, no one spoke and no one moved, and no one made a
sound A
sad silent situation, he's not a-, he's not around (No one spoke, no one moved, no one made a
sound) He's not around! (A sad silent situation, now he's not around)
