To live a life in silence, to live without the word.
|
I'm sitting here like a silent bird.
|
You try to understand the symbols of my hand.
|
I am like a rock that has turned to sand.
|
|
[Chorus:]</i> SILENT. MUTED FOR ETERNAL TIME? SO VIOLENT.
|
BUT I JUST CAN'T CONFESS MY CRIME
|
|
Like every human being there is a thing I seek.
|
For me the day when I can finally speak.
|
To hear my voice again, I still remember when
|
I could say what was on my mind.
|
I rule the streets at night, against myself I fight.
|
I am only trying to survive you see.
|
No man will ever live after what I will give.
|
His soul will go to meet my voice up there.
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Piece by piece I die. Soon there's no
|
tears to cry. I am fading out just like a star falling
|
from the sky! I hear me in my dreams. I can't deny
|
I am suffering. Judge from my silent screams.
|
Without my voice I am withering.
|
Oh, how I wish to scream and to wake
|
up from this dream, but the pain I feel is real.
|
I try to say my name. But I always hear the same:
|
Silence! It drives me insane. To live a life in silence,
|
to live without the word. I'm sitting here like a silent bird.
|
|
You try to understand the symbols of my hand. I am like a
|
rock that has turned to sand. Like every human being there's
|
a thing I seek, for me the day when I can finally speak. To
|
hear my voice again I still remember when I could say what
|
was on my mind. Silent.
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
The written word has no meaning,
|
there is no harmony in my words.
