Break this silence
Before it envelops your world
Before you are left wanting to hear again
That voice which was everywhere,
but nowhere anymore
to be heard
Lying next to a memory now,not her
Memory that time will one day turn distant
Time he wishes could be filled with words
their yesterdays,those available years
spent being silent
Break this silence that you have created today
Before it becomes your only known truth
Before you begin to forget
the language you spoke that gave it a meaning more
than this minute's friendship of regret
When the day arrives and his thoughts turn
When she looks back, collecting words they shred
She would hope to remember only the conversations
Hope that they race past the unsaid
For those who are now forever silent and we want them to speak
For those who are now here but we want them to go
For you and me and all our moments that remain
Time now to break this silence,
Life can no longer be a disdain
Before it envelops your world
Before you are left wanting to hear again
That voice which was everywhere,
but nowhere anymore
to be heard
Lying next to a memory now,not her
Memory that time will one day turn distant
Time he wishes could be filled with words
their yesterdays,those available years
spent being silent
Break this silence that you have created today
Before it becomes your only known truth
Before you begin to forget
the language you spoke that gave it a meaning more
than this minute's friendship of regret
When the day arrives and his thoughts turn
When she looks back, collecting words they shred
She would hope to remember only the conversations
Hope that they race past the unsaid
For those who are now forever silent and we want them to speak
For those who are now here but we want them to go
For you and me and all our moments that remain
Time now to break this silence,
Life can no longer be a disdain
