Lyrics Silent Drum - Wangel

Silent Drum

you left your towel on the shore
tide rose up to pull you in
i was right behind, my feet in sandy dunes i sunk so deep
slowly you began to disappear
i know i have been here times before
like a fly swarms on fallen fruit
now i’m the only guest in this hotel with empty halls
silence is a wave that calls you back
not close enough to see
i have you right next to me
this fickle heart beats
to your silent kind of drum
i won’t let you be
like the stones under the sea
this fickle heart beats
to your silent kind of drum
we walked on the wire
tightly stretched above the ground
soon as i held on to you, i turned my head for something new
lost my focus, swept into the fall
i’m lying down flat with my eyes open
waking up a rerun show is on (husk rerun
letting in the draft to see the walls we had were make believe
expanding and deflating with my lunges
