Take my hand
To a distant place
To a world of pain

Don't drop me now
I can't fly
I'll sink away

All my life is leaving
Waving me goodbye
If only I had something
To hold on
I can see your smile
And nothing else is wrong
You can turn my world around

Silence is my perfect sound

When you walk so close
I can feel my heart
Why is it so cold?
Nothing's left for me to hold

And when you look away
There's nothing left of me
I might as well be drifting in the wind
I might as well be swallowed by the ground

Silence is my perfect sound
Oh silence is my perfect sound

It's hard to be so quiet
When you're waiting for a word
Well I can give you three

I'm sorry I'm all I am
I know it's not enough
By my grave I swear it hurts

You're too good to be with me
I can't hide from the truth
I'll never be enough
I'll bleed endlessly for you
My skin shivers at your presence
My blood retreats into the dark
My reality flips around

So for now
Silence is my perfect sound

I'm too afraid to tell you
What my heart feels for you
This soul of mine is dieing
Your love could bring it back

God, I need you so bad
And I want you, it hurts
But you will never love me
It's the way things are...

So to keep the pain from spreading
Silence
Sweet silence
Is all you'll ever hear from me!
