Breaking Silence |
Come into my solitude |
Though I weary be |
Come into my tenderness |
Dream along with me |
Listen to the whispers sing |
Listen to the singer shout |
Come into my solitude |
Me and my big mouth |
Thoughts unspoken, thoughts unsaid |
Lies of hearth and home |
Children broken on the bed |
And left to lie alone |
Things you talk around |
Scum you choke on down |
Come into my solitude |
Step on sacred ground |
We were speaking |
Of values and violence |
Breaking silence |
Fathers who are lovers to |
The daughters that they own |
Mothers who don’t leave a child |
A single safety zone |
People so unhinged |
That death is much too kind |
Come into my solitude |
Step over that line |
…Thought I was the only one |
…Thought I was the only one |
…Thought I was the only, only one |
We were speaking |
Of values and violence |
Breaking silence |
Come into my solitude |
Welcome to the wheel |
Come into this wonderland |
Of wounds that will not heal |
Walls that do not speak |
Steps that do not sound |
Come into my solitude |
Burn this building down |
