Silent Lyrics - Purgatory Afterglow - Edge Of Sanity

To live a life in silence, to live without the word. 

I'm sitting here like a silent bird. 

You try to understand the symbols of my hand. 

I am like a rock that has turned to sand. 

Chorus: SILENT. MUTED FOR ETERNAL TIME? SO VIOLENT. 

BUT I JUST CAN'T CONFESS MY CRIME 

Like every human being there is a thing I seek. 

For me the day when I can finally speak. 

To hear my voice again, I still remember when 

I could say what was on my mind. 

I rule the streets at night, against myself I fight. 

I am only trying to survive you see. 

No man will ever live after what I will give. 

His soul will go to meet my voice up there. 

(Chorus) 

Piece by piece I die. Soon there's no 

tears to cry. I am fading out just like a star falling 

from the sky! I hear me in my dreams. I can't deny 

I am suffering. Judge from my silent screams. 

Without my voice I am withering. 

Oh, how I wish to scream and to wake 

up from this dream, but the pain I feel is real. 

I try to say my name. But I always hear the same: 

Silence! It drives me insane. To live a life in silence, 

to live without the word. I'm sitting here like a silent bird. 

You try to understand the symbols of my hand. I am like a 

rock that has turned to sand. Like every human being there's 

a thing I seek, for me the day when I can finally speak. To 

hear my voice again I still remember when I could say what 

was on my mind. Silent. 

(Chorus) 

The written word has no meaning, 

there is no harmony in my words.
