The Silence

I found one of your old mix tapes

Remember listening to Grace? I do

We were drivin' to D.C.

I was drunk in your backseat, I know

That nothin' will ever be

Like when we were seventeen

The stars will rearrange

The sun will fade away

Everyone will change

But we will still remain

And outlast the pyramids

I will feel you

I will see you

I will hear you

After the silence

Remember all the frilly nights

Drivin' down I-95

Singin' in a smoky room

When we had everything to lose? I do

And when we got some room to breathe

You said that you would marry me

But even if we never do

I will always be with you, I know

That nothin' will ever be

Like when we were twenty-three

Demands will rage

And blue will turn to gray

Everything will change!

But we will still remain!

And outlast the pyramids

I will feel you

I will see you

I will hear you

After the silence

Silence

The oceans can burn for all I care

And in the ashes, I'll meet you there

I know someday

The moon will blow away

And our flesh will decay

Everything will change!

But we will still remain

And outlast the pyramids

I will feel you

I will see you

I will hear you

And I will keep you

After the silence

After the silence

After the silence

Silence

Silence
