Keep your clever lines.
Hold your easy rhymes.
Silence everything.
Silence always wins.
It’s a perfect alibi - there’s no need to analyze
It will be alright through the longest night, just silence everything.
Coro
As you know(2x); that’s how it all begins.
And you know; and you know
They can’t touch what lies within.
So keep those clever lines, so nice to hide behind, away from me
Through the longest night of our lives.
Learn from my mistake;
leave what others take.
speak when spoken to.
and do what others do.
Cuz silence always wins, so silence everything.
It will be alright in the morning light, just silence everything.
Coro
As you know(2x); they can’t touch what lies within.
And you know;and you know
That’s where it all begins.
So keep your clever lines, hold your easy rhymes.
You were quick to judge.
Quick to criticise but too slow to know what I’ve realised;
Through the longest night
it’s the longest night of our lives.
