It's the fear of silence
That gives us away
'Cause when we're alone
We have to hear
What our aching hearts try to say
And we've been walking In dead men's shoes
Now there's only one saving grace
And we're given the power to choose
Chorus
Whoever you are I hope you'll be alright
I hope you'll let the good Lord Fight your fights
No matter what you hear whispered in your ear
Just remember that you're loved tonight
Loved tonight
We keep our distance we state our case
We keep telling ourselves that we're anything else
But a fallen and renegade race
So we keep running watching our sin take its course
While the life that we long for is holy by nature
And we must return to its source
(Repeat Chorus)
Everywhere you go
There are signs to show you
Trying to let you know
You're loved tonight
Someone's waiting
Watching over you
Watching over you
We're restless spirits
We've lost our way
But until we confess
That we dwell in the darkness
We'll never catch sight of day
It's the fear of silence
That puts us to shame
It's like we know in our souls
If we shut off the music
The wind would be crying His name
(Repeat Chorus)
