When the calls and conversations
Accidents and accusations
Messages and mis-perceptions
Paralyze my mindBuses, cars and airplanes leaving
Burnin' fumes of gasoline
And everyone is runnin'
And I come to find a refugeIn the easy silence that you make for me
It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
And the peaceful quiet you create for me
And the way you keep the world at bay for me
The way you keep the world at bayMonkeys on the barricades
Are warning us to back away
They form commissions tryin' to find
The next one they can crucifyAnd anger plays on every station
Answers only make more questions
I need somethin' to believe in
Breathe in sanctuaryIn the easy silence that you make for me
It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
And the peaceful quiet you create for me
And the way you keep the world at bay for me
The way you keep the world at bayChildren lose their youth too soon
Watchin' war made us immune
And I've got all the world to lose
But I just want to hold on toThe easy silence that you make for me
It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
And the peaceful quiet you create for me
And the way you keep the world at bay for meThe easy silence that you make for me
It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
And the peaceful quiet you create for me
And the way you keep the world at bay for me
The way you keep the world at bay for me
The way you keep the world at bay
