Slippery Silence

(mmmmm) You call me late to watch

the shadows stretch across the floor

But you don't even know

what you are looking for anymore

Static on the wire,

smoke is in the air

You pretend you're listening,

but you're not really there

We are fading into the dark,

lost in the cityscape spark

(lost in the spark)

Trying to hold what we cannot keep,

buried under secrets so deep

Your promises are paper

thin, dissolving in the rain

Another empty habit that we use to mask the pain

We run,

we spin,

we fall right back again

Where does the haze end and the truth begin?

(where does it begin?)

We are fading into the dark,

lost in the cityscape spark

(lost in the spark) Trying to hold what we cannot keep,

buried under secrets so deep

Lost in the

haze... Just a shadow in the rain...
