The Grinding Silence Lyrics - Madder Mortem

.....and when the ocean washed me up onto you shore, was I then saved? 

Oh, loveable liar 

You whispered tales to me at night, but how come you never gave them voice? 

Staring into enticing darkness, you chose to close your eyes 

I could never have predicted this loss of self and time 

And I am crushed against your stone 

(Under the silence, the grinding silence) 

.....and yes, time will float by, but never will it heal a single wound 

You cannot remake this 

You grind me to dust with your pain 

Now, will you let me have mine? 

And you, still standing there, swept in your moth-eaten pride: 

I never wanted this to be 

I never wanted this 

And I am crushed against your stone 

(Under the silence, the grinding silence)
