If Silence Means That Much to You Lyrics & Tabs by Emma Pollock
If Silence Means That Much to You
guitar chords lyrics
We live for the greater
We live for the good
At least
That's what I thought
She understood
So why
Then the phone call
The torrent of words
That dismissed
The past decades
And deemed them absurd?
And what did you think about
Think about with her?
And what did you talk about
Talk about with her?
Think about with her?
And what did you talk about
Talk about with her?
There's nothing
That I wouldn't do
To remedy
This thing for you
If silence means
That much to you
Then I promise
To keep silent, too
Bear in mind
One final thing
The solitude
That it will bring
If silence
Outlives everything
The residue
Will never thin
Deny me the first time
Deny me then twice
But not once again
If you value this life
The oldest is broken
The youngest clings on
But the middle tries hard
To still belong
And what did you think about
Think about with her?
And what did you talk about
Talk about with her?
There's nothing
That I wouldn't do
To remedy
This thing for you
If silence means
That much to you
Then I promise
To keep silent, too
Bear in mind
One final thing
The solitude
That it will bring
If silence
Outlives everything
The residue
Will never thin
Buried alive
And with nobody watching
Severed all ties
With the mother of lies
No circle of friends
No scattering ashes
Just hang up the line
And pray you'll be fine
And what did you think about
Think about with her?
And what did you talk about
Talk about with her?
There's nothing
That I wouldn't do
To remedy
This thing for you
If silence means
That much to you
Then I promise
To keep silent, too
Bear in mind
One final thing
The solitude
That it will bring
If silence
Outlives everything
The residue
Will never thin
