The Silence Lyrics by Causes

Wake Me Up So I Can Dream

2018

I broke my heart
But I didn't feel it
I lost my tongue
But I'm still speaking
So in the end
Aren't we all just breathing?
Aren't we all just breathing?

Out of time
Before beginning
Above the sky
Beneath the ceiling
Well in the end
Aren't we all just dreaming?
Aren't we all just dreaming?

I'm doing OK regardless
Standing up straight all on my own
I feel as though the light got brighter
Thought it would be harder now you're gone
But everything's opened wider
If it don't kill then it makes you strong
Still there's one thing that I can't abide
I just can't bear the silence
I just can't bear the silence

I thought I'd fall
But I'm still high up
Predicted tears
But they've all dried up
So in the end
Was I riding my luck?
Was I riding my luck?
(Stand and fight)

I'm doing OK regardless
Standing up straight all on my own
I feel as though the light got brighter
Thought it would be harder now you're gone
But everything's opened wider
If it don't kill then it makes you strong
Still there's one thing that I can't abide
I just can't bear the silence
I just can't bear the silence
I just can't bear the silence
I just can't bear the silence

I got lost tonight in your photograph
I saw your punches coming in 'cause they were telegraphed
If this is the end I don't know where I'll start

I just can't bear the silence
I just can't bear the silence
I just can't bear the silence
I just can't bear the silence

I'm doing OK regardless
Standing up straight all on my own
I feel as though the light got brighter
Thought it would be harder now you're gone
But everything's opened wider
If it don't kill then it makes you strong
Still there's one thing that I can't abide
I just can't bear the silence
I just can't bear the silence
