can't things just stay a bit more silent
long equations and tired numbers
midnight light tears through the darkness
can't things just stay a bit more silent
nightly ritual you never let go
tired but you still want more
crushed under the things you call home
can't things just stay a bit more silent
counting minutes until midnight
hope tomorrow will be not
no sound, nothing to pull you out
can't things just stay a bit more silent
once a saint, twice a marauder
one cries while the other slaughters
ripped in half without guidance
can't both sides just stay a bit silent
