The Silence

With a friend of mine, he’d a successful mind

And he told me of his life

And the plans he’d made to come this far

Had gone so well and now we’re all so proud of him

And he told me how

But I couldn’t bear to listen

Cause all my life I’ve heard

Of the dreams of the organized

To be the best in the company

To win the awards but that’s not me

Cause all my life all I ever wanted

Was a love that lasted longer than the silence

All my life, all my life

Was a love that lasted longer than the silence

I had to say that I had to leave

Cause it was on my mind

That all he set in me were insecurities

But that dream was never mine

Cause the plans I thought I’d made so far

Had gone alright but all that I feel now is doubt

And he told me why

But I couldn’t bear to listen

Cause all my life I’ve heard

Of the dreams of the organized

To be the best in the company

To win the awards but that’s not me

Cause all my life all I ever wanted

Was a love that lasted longer than the silence

All my life, all my life

Was a love that lasted longer than the silence
