There's a veil of cloud
Sinking over the soul of day
It's white eye - hanging
Slowly drowns and fades away
The trees are sinking
Into the sea of whey
The earth is sinking
Into the sky and slips away

Oh if you only knew
How my drowning heart would tear this silence
But the flooding fills my mouth with knives and saws
Silent ocean?
Tender sea?
Inundation drowns my nerves
And all I see is frothing turbulently

There's a silence
Looming like a gull
See it swooping to feed ravenously
On my tattered soul
I'm so silent
I'd like to be a wail
High and piercing through this frothing fog
To lance your heart but instead I flail and founder

Oh if you only knew
How my drowning heart would tear this silence
But the flooding fills my mouth with knives and saws
Silent ocean?
Tender sea?
Inundation drowns my nerves
And all I see is frothing turbulently

There's a moonlit crest of clouds
I'm sure it's pretty but I'm pitifully drowning beneath its clashing waves
In this silent chaos
Stamping out the day

Si tu savais...
Si tu savais...
