Moment Of Silence

You're on your own
Feeling older as you take the road
Wasting hours as our time erodes
God only knows that we've been on this path before

You're feeling tired
It's getting dark and now you're lighting fires
Nowhere to run and nowhere you can hide
God only knows that we've been on this path before

It was a moment of silence
A moment lost in the rain
The time we knew it was over
Thinking 'bout all the things that we could have been

It was a moment of sadness
A moment of revelation that we feared
Crashing out on the sidelines
The toll, it's taken on our lives
In just a moment of silence

The silence rings
It stole our voices and it clipped our wings
Echoes blindly through our days again
God only knows that we've been on this path before

Some time apart
Just waiting for our curtain call to start
We're faking happiness with plastic hearts
God only knows that we've been on this path before

It was a moment of silence
A moment lost in the rain
The time we knew it was over
Thinking 'bout all the things that we could have been

It was a moment of sadness
A moment of revelation that we feared
Crashing out on the sidelines
The toll, it's taken on our lives
In just a moment of silence
