This Silence

from Muscle & Skin by Hannah Fairlight

lyrics

there's nothing crooked about my vision
it's the only way of livin
it's the only me that I can live with
so excuse me I've made my decision
you can fire me if you want to
I've got things to accomplish
so make haste in the night
escape the fight
if this is gonna happen it's gotta happen right
now
I'll seal your comfort with a kiss so I'm not missed
and I'll dream of our kids
as I climb amidst the mist
and clouds and mountains

I'll come back someday this to you I promise
till then no other way to break this silence
I'll meet you there between the peace and violence
till then no other way to break this silence

no no no

straight up and down fields and roads
Iowa's got a lot of lost lost lone lonely souls
straight-laced just like a straight jacket
and the only saving grace
is the classic rock station on the radio

and driving fast and far is the only way to go
and where I'll wind up god only knows
the nostalgia weighs so heavy on my soul
that the pedal goes down easy under my toes

no no no

I'll come back someday this to you I promise
till then no other way to break this silence
I'll meet you there between the peace and violence
till then no other way to break this silence

no other way no other way

I'll meet you there between the peace and violence
till then no other way to break this silence

no no no
