Searching In The Silence Lyrics

You've been searching in the silence

For a shadow that's been lost

Of a certain disposition

That was busy playing God

And you've been holding out for something

Sure as hell I know I couldn't tell you what

With a heart that's slowly burning

All the workings of your mind have long been shot

But you were on my side tonight

Don't suffocate the flame that cries

Out for something pure and bright

You've never had a grip on life

And you've been hungry for redemption

Maddened by the faces in the sky

And you've been pining for attention

From a lover who has left you far behind

A fragile look within your eyes

And a mark I've never seen upon your skin

You wrap yourself in vicious lies

Buried in the belly of your sins

But you were on my side tonight

Don't suffocate the flame that cries

Out for something pure and bright

You've never had a grip on life

You sit there hiding from your thoughts

You don't know what you're living for

Disappointment takes the form of nervous apathy and more

You sit there hiding from your thoughts

Staring blankly at the wall

You didn't know how far you'd fall

But you were on my side tonight

Don't suffocate the flame that cries

Out for something pure and bright

You've never had a grip on life
