Silence

Heard you in the distance
A storm on the scope
Almighty thunder
Coming for me I hoped
Rolled over the horizon
Swept up it all
Batten the hatches
And teardrops and branches

But I hear the silence now
Right to my core
I never heard silence
Like this before
But I hear the silence now
From wall to wall
I never heard silence
Like this before

Very tall buildings
Lights at high speed
Trails on the taxis
Heading all around me
Up on the rooftop
Wasteland of a view
The pierce of the sirens
Can you hear them too?

Or is it just silence now
Cause I tell you what
It feels like this silence
Is all that I’ve got
Yeah I won the battle
But I lost the war
I never heard silence
Like this before

The plane flies so high
Can't be seen or heard
Looking down on the hills
Looking down on all the birds

But I hear the silence now
Right in my core
I never heard silence
Like this before
Yeah I hear the silence now
From wall to wall
I never heard silence
Like this before
