IN SILENCE

They threaten to let me through to heaven

Oh, slow, slow, slow

I slip out of time

I slip through the harbor

Distilled and refined, swallowed up by time

This is rain now

Oh, this big hush

We rise in silence, silence, silence, oh, silence

We rise in silence, silence, silence, oh, silence

We rise in silence, silence, silence, oh, silence

We rise in silence, silence, silence, oh, silence

You sit at your desk, writing for all times

Writing your name for time to come

The lamp, the shade, the moon, the night

Swallowed up by time

This is rain now

Oh, this big hush

We rise in silence, silence, silence, oh, silence

We rise in silence, silence, silence, oh, silence

We rise in silence, silence, silence, oh, silence

We rise in silence, silence, silence, oh, silence

Yeah, as if it was laying in wait for me

Silence wraps itself around me

Starless and fatherless dark water

She breaks the leaves, the horror

Into the great organizations

Of time and time and out of time

And time and time and time

I have been there

Can we move

Through our souls?

Through our minds?

Through time passed between us?

Together here where words sleep

In a corner of time

And time and time and out of time

This is rain now

Oh, this big hush

I have been there, I had allowance

I have been there, the big hush

We rise

We rise
