A question well served
is silence like a fever
A voice never heard
or a message with
no receiver
Pray they won't ask
Behind the stained glass
there's always
one more mask
Has man been a victim
of his woman
of his father
If he elects
not to bother
will he suffocate
their faith
Desperate to fall
behind the great wall
that separates us all
When there is reason
tonight I'm awake
When there's no answer
arrive the silent man
If there is balance
tonight he's awake
If they have to suffer
there lies the silent man
Sin without deceivers
A God with no believers
I could sail by on
the winds of silence
and maybe they
won't notice
But this time I think
it'd be better if I swim
When there is reason
tonight I'm awake
When there's no answer
arrive the silent man
If there is balance
tonight he's awake
But if they have to suffer
there lies the silent man
There lies the silent man
