Qanda - Song for Silence lyrics

There was thunder in the sky that night Rattling the windows of the nursery Dragon shadows diving down the wall So real I couldn't help but scream Then my mother walked into the room She came to set me free and scare the monsters all away She pressed a finger to her lips and gently said to me...she said "I wish you had, I wish you'd be a sign for silence Listen to the voice that speaks A sign for silence" Calling people everywhere A sign for silence...Home Out with the "fellas" as a younger man Changing who I was to be a friend Taking chances on the late night streets Burning the candle from the other end So I asked the mirror on the wall "Is this person that I want to be or do I want to be at all?" I closed my eyes to fall asleep, and these words came to me "I wish you had, I wish you'd be a sign for silence Listen to the voice that speaks A sign for silence" Calling people everywhere A sign for silence...Home This world is full of noise and violence We all could use a little silence Sitting with my daughter in a quiet cafe The day was coming when she went away I had to tell her she would be ok But struggled for the words to say I tried to tell her that one thing is true There was one thing that she had to do I said, "to find the truth you have to take a look inside of you." I will shed a tear and wave goodbye Watching you take off and fly Towards a distant star that shines beyond this sky "I wish you had, I wish you'd be a sign for silence Listen to the voice that speaks A sign for silence" Calling people everywhere A sign for silence...Home
