Silence Lyrics by Jonathan Peyton

Nothing Here’s The Same

0

[Verse 1]
I often remember that cold November
Screaming curses to the sky
"God, how?" and, "God, why?"
That's just the way it is
And how the hell are we to live
On the run from the beast
He's had his glory now he's showing teeth
[Pre-Chorus]
A cursed bloodline was your design
[Chorus]
Said silence was golden so we learned to keep it down
To bite our tongues, keep our eyes to the ground
If anyone asks us, "What's going on here?"
We'll tell them, "Nothing, don't cry another tear"
[Verse 2]
Little feet in the hall
Run so fast they almost fall
And old Mary sits in her chair
Her only hope, well, it was a prayer
And old Bruce still in the drive
I remember his hand was next to mine
In the snow, fell to my knees
Just like an avalanche to me
[Pre-Chorus]
A cursed bloodline was your design
[Chorus]
Said silence was golden so we learned to keep it down
To bite our tongues, keep our eyes to the ground
If anyone asks us, "What's going on here?"
We'll tell them, "Nothing, don't cry another tear"
[Bridge]
Maybe we weren't right
We said that we're alright
Maybe we weren't right
We said that we're alright
Well maybe we weren't right
When we said that we're alright
Well maybe we weren't right
When we said that we're alright
[Chorus]
Said silence was golden so we learned to keep it down
To bite our tongues, keep our eyes to the ground
If anyone asks us, "What's going on here?"
We'll tell them, "Nothing, don't cry another tear"
Said silence was golden so we learned to keep it down
To bite our tongues, keep our eyes to the ground
If anyone asks us, "What's going on here?"
We'll tell them, "Nothing, don't cry another tear"
