From Silence

I learned what I could

Now I hide it away

In a place of my own devising

I write from silence

Spirited up from inside

And so many nights

I have laid there awake

In a state of perfect desiring

Waiting for darkness

To answer me back with a smile

And love, what have you done to me?

I'm without alibi

We set off the fireworks

And averted our eyes

My friend's on the phone

And he's starting to cry

And I don't know what to tell him

And in my mind, I see him falling

Down

And love, what have you done to me?

I'm without alibi

We set off the fireworks

And averted our eyes

Love, what have you done to me?

I'm without alibi

We set off the fireworks

And exploded the night
