lyrics

No Sound

What would I sing about if you were here,
If this strain in my heart were to disappear?
Had I abandoned all of the fear at your ground,
There'd be no sound.

I'd tell you why the chains had me blind,
And I fell to your knees and begged you don't leave.
But you already know,
And you had to go.

The worst of it spilled from the child and she cried,
So we'd throw down her armor and forfeit the fight.
Then I closed her eyes to listen and found,
There'd be no sound.

I'd tell you why with a lie on my face,
I fell to your knees and begged you to stay,
Please stay.
But you already know,
And you had to go.

What would I sing about if you were here,
If this strain in my heart were to disappear?
Had I abandoned all of the fear at your ground,
There'd be no sound.

You already know...
