Песни Для Души — I Want Silence

The stars reflect the heavens face to face.
Their light falls softly on the evening town
Like ash, like some dark blanket laid in place
With traffic lights like embers burning down
With billions of the farthest stars above
And golden domes that catch the fading flame.
The milky
Way returns like a staff of love
Or scar from some unearly wound of shame
Silence like a refuge for the soul
No summer mess could ever bear its weight
Silence the floors that keep our worlds apart
A curtain drawn between us by our fate
This world is hard to tell the foe from friend
And every answer bears the mark we make
The sea of wounds
I cannot mend
The part of every choice for bait
No gunshot can ever trample silence down
It sinks inside it, lost beyond return
Silence is part of every desire we own
And sometimes silence is the price we learn silence.
Silence is what
I desire
Though paid for with a mournful call
Into which my soul takes flight
A bottomless soul where nothing can be lost
Silence I want
Like snowflakes softly falling
Never cutting through my conscience
Silence I want
Until it fades to whisper
No shards, no glass, no edge of emptiness
Silence
Silence is what
I desire silence
Though paid for with a mournful cause
Into which my soul takes flight
A bottomless soul where nothing can be lost
Silence I want
Like snowflakes softly falling
Never cutting through my conscience
Silence I want
Till it fades to whisper
No shards, no glass, no edge of emptiness
To hell with all this world that lies outside
And here somehow the simplest things remain
I want the ice inside the war to die
So neither homes nor forests burn again
I want a silence honest to the core
Where strings are strings and nerves are nerves no more where
I can find you waiting there with me
Not by the bullets that came haunting me
I want a silence where the summer's heat
Can bring back skirts and shorts and little tops
Where this round planet turning at our feet
Is filled with every strange exotic thought
I want the silence underneath a laugh
Where summer slowly gives its place to fall so
I can fall for you all over again
For no good reason
Under skies gone pale
I want a silence honest to the bone
A silence filled with rainbow sudden light
A silence underneath the dewy dawn
And fragrant bird cherry in the night
Silence is what
I desire
Though paid for with a mourful call
Into which my soul takes flight
A bottomless soul where nothing can be lost
Silence I want
Like snowflakes softly falling
Never cutting through my conscience
Silence I want
Till it fades to whisper
No shots, no blast, no edge of emptiness
No shots, no blast, no edge of emptiness
