Then There Was Silence Lyrics by Dead Animal Assembly Plant

All My Heroes Are Dead

2013

"And then there was silence," said the drowning man
As his lungs filled up, he grabbed, grabbed my hand
And he pulled me down into the drink
Where rapture sells, and the wicked sink
"And then there was silence," said the dying man
His skin turned soft with a heart of sand
As it poured out and cracked the ground
He left this place without a sound
And then there was silence, it came from you and me
We stared at each other, though we could not see
The only difference between us and him
Is a thin red line stretched out way too thin
And after all is said and done
As our eyes blister from the sun
What's called so soon is here at last
How could I have known? It comes so fast
"And then there was silence," whispered the choking man
Gasping for air, but we could not meet his demand
With eyes now empty, we could not make sense
Who was this dying man left here in silence?
And then there was silence, and then there was silence
And then there was silence, and then there was silence
