Sung
Song of silence sung so loud
Never performed before a crowd
Songs being sang with no word
such beauty never to be heard
A river of teardrops fall
Where once many stood tall
Long lines that lead nowhere
But we all pay the fare
For the song not playing
Exactly what are they saying
For the price we are paying
We grab for what's not there
We dream when we don't dare
Reach for a star we can't see
And how happy we be
In this world without light
Who knows what's wrong or right
That has done past
Way to fast
It can't last
Is what we say
We'll do something just not today.
It's our way
To let things ride
Or we just hide
Laughter, what is that
Something you hide under your hat
We know how to hate
Let's not make that our fate
But be aware
Does anyone care
More than I can bare
But we keep on trying
Just pardon the crying.
