Drowning With Silence - Soilwork

Need for attention

Need for solace

In this abuse-ridden world

I’ve fallen into oblivion with you

A mental hand shake of fools

This life has gotten us all

The paradox still remains

We live to choke the difference

Carry the weight of an awful fate

That’s what they told you to do

Nothing’s changed

Nothing will

We still live the other truth

It makes us cope

With our need for violence…

Nothing’s changed

Nothing will

We still give

The water’s still

But it still drowns our wish

With silence

I can laugh in the face of god

Cause I wont be loved in the end

Look at all the pain that I’ve felt

The truth that I’ve bent to accommodate

Myself

A sideshow with misery

An affair with no dignity

I’ve lost myself.

I’ve lost myself

This life has gotten us all

The paradox still remains

We live to choke the difference

Carry the weight of an awful fate

That’s what they told you to do

Nothing’s changed

Nothing will

We still live the other truth

It makes us cope

With our need for violence…

Nothing’s changed

Nothing will

We still give, the waters still

But it still drowns our wish

With silence

While the silence remains

You and I pick the change

The scraps of a lost free will

I won’t bother, you won’t see

But we can sense the infinite dream

I can laugh in the face of god

Cause I won’t be loved in the end

Look at all the pain that I’ve felt

The truth that I’ve bent to accommodate

Myself

A sideshow with misery

An affair with no dignity

I’ve lost myself…
