The Silence In Between

Exaggerate what the words won't say

Build an argument against yourself

Sit this one out

As the silent treatment speaks

The walls are coming down

All we need is

One to fail, one to break

One to take it all away

What if we crumble,

What if we fall

Where is the flame

That torch the soul

thruth when spoken

Dies down to nothing

We challanged the light and flame

And settled for the dark

With pressure built to a point

Deflated before its time

We set our world on fire

Yet lost the will to burn

Not set a tone but a distance

Whatever validates

The anger kept inside

Nothing ties the world to me

Not in a page of history

Cannot talk the pain away

Nothing ties the world to me

The silent treatment gets to me

So few and far between

These great dividing acts

Behind those silent eyes
