Sound of Solace - Burden Of A Day

You placed the sound of silence in my ears when i’m calm

Like sleeping underwater with dreams of you swirling around

I’m engulfed

Don’t let this fade away

Never let this go

The storm above us is pounding

Ships are cracking at the hull

Under all this it’s tranquil

Wrapped up in you

Breathe into me the breath life so i will never die again

Breathe into me the breath life so i will never die again

And i will rise to the surface

Trying to swim against the beating waves

I slip and fall

The water pounding in my lungs

The fear of failing pulls me

It marks my demise

Like salt in open wounds

Light burns my sun baked eyes

The sound of silence in my head

(solace is found in silent conversation)

You speak without using your words

(solace is found in silent conversation)

(talking in the background:)

Thoughts are carried up on angels' wings

Words speak volumes when they are unspoken

My head is mute

But my heart still sings

You bought me you brought me out

Thoughts are carried up on angels' wings

Take me away

Solace is found in this

Silence

Breathe into me, my father

Breathe into me, my friend

Take some time to listen to me

Please hear me out

I can’t let you go that way

Take some time to listen to me

Please hear me out

I can’t let you go that way

(look into his eyes and tell him he’s not wanted

Look into his eyes and tell him he is not your friend)
