Silence

Silence is so good for the soul
To take a deep breath and get back in control

Just relax, inhale, and exhale
And keep telling yourself there's no right way to fail

Try to concentrate on your feeling of inner peace
And let the stresses of you life decease

Always be grateful for what you have
You're lucky to have a hot meal and a warm bath

It's ok to be different, unusually strange
Its ok to use a silencer at a firing range

It's ok to have evil thoughts, they're quite normal
It's ok to wear blue jeans to a dance that is formal

What I'm trying to say is that there's no wrong way to live
Just relax, and continue to give
