Lyrics Deafening Silence - Serj Tankian

Deafening Silence

I know who you are
I know who you are not
I know who you are
I, I know who you are not
The silence is deafening to my ears
How could the obvious be ignored?
The silence is threatening then she appears
The ceremony is performed
I’m here to paint you with my tears
Decried my spirit over my fears
I can’t walk away from all the years
Serene and sad, she disappears
Hands of my mind
My thoughts trembling
The ends of time
Time always medding
The silence is deafening to my ears
How could the obvious be ignored?
The silence is threatening and she appears
The ceremony is performed
I’m here to paint you with my tears
Decried my spirit over my fears
I can’t walk away from all the years
Serene and sad, she disappears
Night-lights are for chilfren
Mornings for adults
Non-egalitarian equinox
The hands of my mind
My thoughts trembling
The hands of time
Time always medding
The silence is deafening to my ears
How could the obvious be ignored?
The silence is threatening then she appears
The ceremony will always be performed
The silence is threatening as she appears
The ceremony will always be performed
The silence is deafening to my ears
Seized by the impressions of passers in the night
I’m here to paint you with my tears
Decried my spirit over my fears
I can’t walk away from all the years
Serene and sad, she disappears
I’m here to paint you with my tears
Decried my spirit over my fears
I can’t walk away from all the years
Serene and sad, she reappears
I know who you are.
