Silent Gold - He Is Legend

The silence of the forest

I was waiting for it

Repeated by the wind

Nothing but an echo

Begging me to let go

Never speak again

You only have to whisper

You barely have to breathe

I can hear them calling

I can hear 'em moan

Heavy were the voices

Turning me to stone

Heaven was a nightmare

Hell a bad dream

I wanted to come here

Now I’ll never leave

You’ve lost all control

You can’t keep your mouth shut

Your sentence is silver but silence is gold

You have no control

Your words are just dust

You could have been spared

But you talk too much

Quietly as I roam

All paths are overgrown

Above the pine trees sway

Never found a way out

So I gave up and laid down

Still there to this day

You only have to whisper

You barely have to breathe

Can you hear me calling?

Can you hear me moan?

I produce the voices

Me and me alone

Heaven was a nightmare

Hell was just a dream

You wanted to come here

Now you can never leave

You’ve lost all control

You can’t keep your mouth shut

Your sentence is silver but silence is gold

You have no control

Your words are just dust

You could have been spared

But you talk too much

And nowhere left is sacred

Nowhere to call home

At least we’ll be together

The sun can bleach our bones

They beg you not to say it

They beg you not to speak

The voice inside the silence

Is always calling

Now you’ve lost all control

Your sentence is silver

But silence…

Silence is gold
