The silence

"The silence" is a song by LorD and Master from the album, Amalgam, exploring the perceived silence between two lovers who are internally screaming at one another.

Lyrics

We've got nothing to lose now 
We've got nothing to say 
We've got nothing between us 
To stand in our way 

All the words have been spoken 
All the sentences said 
All that's left is the silence 
Echoing round my head 

Silence 
The silence 
The silence 
Deafening silence 
Silence 
The silence 
The silence 
Deafening silence 

How can we move forward 
How can we see 
How can there be a future 
Between you and me 

With all this distance 
With animosity 
With our futures divided 
You say nothing to me 

Silence (what do you say now) 
The silence (where can we go) 
The silence (oh-oh) 
Deafening silence (do you even know) 
Silence (why all the anger) 
The silence (why all the hate) 
The silence (woah-oh) 
Deafening silence (just leave me to my fate) 

Silence (what do you say now) 
The silence (where can we go) 
The silence (oh-oh) 
Deafening silence (do you even know) 
Silence (why all the anger) 
The silence (why all the hate) 
The silence (woah-oh) 
Deafening silence (just leave me to my fate) 

Silence 
The silence 
The silence 
Deafening silence
