*sigh* I love these lyrics. (Really, the whole album's good.)
Easy Silence
When the calls and conversations,
accidents and accusations,
messages and misperceptions
paralyze my mind;
buses, cars, and airplanes leaving,
burning fumes of gasoline, and
everyone is running
and I come to find a refuge
in the easy silence
that you make for me.
It's okay
when there's nothing more to say to me
in the peaceful quiet
you create for me
and the way you keep the world
at bay for me,
the way you keep the world
at bay.
Monkeys on the barricades
are warning us to back away.
They form commissions,
try to find
the next one they can crucify.
Anger plays on every station.
Answers only make more questions.
I need something to believe in,
to breathe in sanctuary
in the easy silence
that you make for me.
It's okay
when there's nothing more to say to me
in the peaceful quiet you create for me
and the way you keep the world
at bay for me,
the way you keep the world
at bay.
(You can hear the song
here. I would just listen to the radio in the top right and skip the Successories video, but ymmv.)
