You’ll Be The Silence Lyrics by Tim Bowness

Lost In The Ghost Light

2017

You threw ideas into the wind
Just to see where they would land:
Making sounds and using words
You could barely understand
You caught the music of the moment by accident
You caught the moments in the music by chance
You would love -
Oh, how you’d love -
Oh, how you’d love to do that now
The others were heads
And you were the straight
They stayed in their beds
You bolted out of the gate
You were brought alive by the sound of applause
You made the music and the moments all yours
You would love -
Oh, how you’d love -
Oh, how you’d love to be there now
You sit by the roadside
In the corner of your eye
You see the traffic pass you by
You look in the mirror
Make adjustments to your tie:
You hear the traffic pass you by
You feel the world collapsing all around
You went on stage together
But the lights pulled you apart
You went on stage together
But you failed to find the art
Something died
And there was nowhere to hide
You couldn’t hold back the tide
(Something had died)
Once the world was yours
And the world was for people like you
Now the world is theirs
And the world is for people like them
You’ll be the silence
And they can make the noise
