SO THIS IS SILENCE


And Also the Trees



The boy walked round the jagged rocks
caught between ideals and desires
He sinks into oblivion
And there was silence, as he sat so still
Averted face stares at the floor

So this is silence
So this is silence

Listen, the sound of laughter
The frenzy and blind violence of fear

Alone again with light and silence
Alone again with the skies

Alone again with the skies

So this is silence
So this is silence. Silence. Silence. Silence. Silence.
Silence. Silence. Gunshots. Footsteps. Raindrops. Idiot cries.
Silence. Carcrash. Girl laughs. Raindrops. Footsteps.
Silence. Fox barks. Footsteps. Gunshots. Gunshots. Silence.
Silence.
