Breaking Silence Lyrics


Come into my solitude
Though I weary be
Come into my tenderness
Dream along with meListen to the whispers sing
Listen to the singers shout
Come into my solitude
Me and my big mouthThoughts unspoken, thoughts unsaid
Lies of hearth and home
Children broken on the bed
And left to lie aloneThings you talk around
Scum you chock on down
Come into my solitude
Step on sacred groundWe were speaking
Of values and violence
Breaking silenceFathers who are lovers
To the daughters that they own
Mothers who don't leave a child
In a single safety zonePeople so unhinged

That death is much to kind
Come into my solitude
Step over that line
(Thought I was the only one)Thought I was the only one
Thought I was the only
(Thought I was the only)
Thought I was the only, only one
(Thought I was the only)We were speaking
Of values and violence
Breaking silenceCome into my solitude
Welcome to the wheel
Come into this wonderland
Of wounds that will not healWalls that do not speak
Steps that do not sound
Come into my solitude
Burn this building down
