Silence reigns around these parts While daylight sleeps, its presence unknown The souls that yet inhabit this earth Are deafened by the noise that silence brings Blinded by the darkness of no day The sheer curtain that acts as a covering for their eyes Is thicker that they'll ever realise Reality seems so far removed Yet lurks so close that it is easily ignored Their non-lives are a study in contradictions Their death ever nearing the never to be Their intellect promises no security Yet it is all that they hold dear Those who wish to make it out of here must die They must embrace what is scorned They must let go of what they value To gain that which they will treasure They must break the reign of silence They must scream JESUS! |

Are deafened by the noise that silence brings great line!!! Not too certain of the motivation behind screaming "JESUS" It's difficult to know if it's a plea or a blasphemy. Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |
