Lyrics And then there was Silence - 69 Chambers

And then there was Silence

Facts against the world
No one breathes a word
The moment sags quietly
Under the weight of dirt
Shadows unfold
Some secrets remain untold
Nobody must know
And then there was silence
Passive aggressive violence
So damn loud it’s hard to bear
But the machine keeps on rolling
For silence to cut through the air
And you don’t care
Repeat the downfall
Until the death bell tolls
Breaking all brick walls
Walls meant to stand tall
Are there armies
Legions somewhere out there
Waiting to brave apathy
Defy hypocrisy?
And then there was silence
Passive aggressive violence
So damn loud it’s hard to bear
But the machine keeps on rolling
For silence to cut through the air
And you don’t care
A mask for a face
Without a future
Keep marching in line
Never to ask yourself when or why
The dead ash pit of sky
Had sucked out all life
And then there was silence
Passive aggressive violence
So damn loud it’s hard to bear
But the machine keeps on rolling
For silence to cut through the air
And you don’t care
