Lyrics

Sons of the silent age Stand on platforms blank looks and note books Sit in back rows of city limits Lay in bed coming and going on easy terms Sons of the silent age Pace their rooms like a cell's dimensions Rise for a year or two then make war Search through their one inch thoughts Then decide it couldn't be done Baby, I'll never let you go All I see is all I know Let's take another way down (sons of sound and sons of sound) Baby, baby, I'll never let you down I can't stand another sound Let's find another way (sons of sound and sons of sound) Sons of the silent age Listen to tracks by Sam Therapy and King Dice Sons of the silent age Pick up in bars and cry only once Sons of the silent age Make love only once but dream and dream Don't walk, they just glide in and out of life They never die, they just go to sleep one day Baby, I won't ever let you go All I see is all I know Let's take another way down (sons of sound and sons of sound) Oh baby, baby, baby, I won't ever let you down I can't stand another sound Let's take another way in (sons of sound and sons of sound) (Sons of sound and sons of sound) Baby, baby, baby, fire away!
