I hear the drums pounding to take me away,
Roaring with thunder, shattering the break of day,
Voices chilling me with harmonic terror,
This prison remains my hell forever,
Marching footsteps of soldiers rattle the walls,
Tumbling stones, fake voices of the innocent calls,
And the rain fills the cracks made in the ground by the bombs dropped, without a sound,
Darkness roams through the air, shadow of death,
Lightning blisters the sky, the lips of the earth caress,
My eyes I will close, they die by the violence,
I will turn my back to the madness, and breathe silence.
There is a town where no man walks,
The streets are silent, and the walls don't talk,
Still, in the past, a ghost may wait,
Open the door, close the gate,
Though time has passed them by, a day will come when the secrets will die,
Upon the mountain strong and high, in the darkness, the mystery lies.
Silence is madness,
Silence is madness around the world,
Silence is madness,
Silence is madness around the world.
Warden mist in ancient halls,
People scraping on the walls,
Chapter of voices are crying,
To the cloudless night are flying,
And when you hear the wind whistle and moan, you'll pray for the light to be shown,
When the darkness turns to grey, forever has come, and one more day.
Silence is madness,
Silence is madness around the world,
Silence is madness,
Silence is madness around the world.
Upon the land the air is red; tombstone of the bloody dead,
Let the land shine and then will burn, for soon, my friend, your king will return,
Touching the muted hearts that cry brings us closer toward space and time,
Sometimes our words are too misleading, when no one smiles and all is weeping.
Silence is madness,
Silence is madness around the world,
Silence is madness,
Silence is madness around the world.
Silence is madness,
Silence is madness.
