Silence

Heard you in the distance
A storm on the scope
Almighty thunder, coming for me I hoped
Rolled over the horizon
Swept up it all
Batten the hatches and teardrops and branches

But I hear the silence now
Right in my core
I never heard silence
Like this before
Yeah, I hear the silence now
From wall to wall
Never heard silence
Like this before

Very tall buildings
Lights at high speed
Trails on the taxis
Heading all around me
Up on the rooftop
Wasteland of a view
The pierce of the sirens, can you hear them too?

Or is it just silence now?
'Cause I tell you what
Feels like this silence
Is all that I've got
Yeah, I won the battle
But I lost the war
I never heard silence
Like this before

Plane flies so high
Can't be seen or heard
Looking down on the hills
Looking down on all the birds

But I hear the silence now
Right in my core
I never heard silence
Like this before
Yeah, I hear the silence now
From wall to wall
I never heard silence
Like this before
