This is a song to fall on deaf ears And these are words not meant for you to hear If sound is the death of silence I had hoped that you'd stay for the evening Then I am constantly in mourning I had planned to wake you by the early morning If sound is the death of silence Then I am constantly in mourning This is a song to fall on deaf ears Have you ever seen the sun rise? And these are words not meant for you to hear Have you ever felt so sick in your life?
