Searching In The Silence
You've been searching in the silence
For a shadow that's been lost
Of a certain disposition
That was busy playing God
And you've been holding out for something
Sure as hell I know I couldn't tell you what
With a heart that's slowly burning
All the workings of your mind have long been shot
But you were on my side tonight
Don't suffocate the flame that cries
Out for something pure and bright
You've never had a grip on life
And you've been hungry for redemption
Maddened by the faces in the sky
And you've been pining for attention
From a lover who has left you far behind
A fragile look within your eyes
And a mark I've never seen upon your skin
You wrap yourself in vicious lies
Buried in the belly of your sins
But you were on my side tonight
Don't suffocate the flame that cries
Out for something pure and bright
You've never had a grip on life
You sit there hiding from your thoughts
You don't know what you're living for
Disappointment takes the form of nervous apathy and more
You sit there hiding from your thoughts
Staring blankly at the wall
You didn't know how far you'd fall
But you were on my side tonight
Don't suffocate the flame that cries
Out for something pure and bright
You've never had a grip on life
