Twenty Seventeen - Silence Lyrics

You've got a lot to say, I've got a lot to learn
You like your space, and I like my silence

Look at the mess you've made, it's like digging your own grave
The money is sweet when you don't know where it's been

Bring us flowers, clear your name
Next time I see you I'll call you a saint
Do you want your love to suffocate me?
I find a comfort in the fire you breathe

This is my sound addiction, my saving grace
A new kind of noise encircles me, a violent embrace
Like your loving arms should, like I thought they would

I am the harm in harmony, you never fail to remind me
But I'm an escape artist, I have my own little world

You'll never find it, you'll never know
You'll never see it, you'll never go where I go
When I slip into silence

Cross your heart and cross the line
Take my things and take your time
Do you want your love to suffocate me?
Cause I find a comfort in feeling nothing

This is my sound addiction, my saving grace
A new kind of noise encircles me, a violent embrace
Like your loving arms should, like I thought they would

But now I know I can't let go,
I can't move on, I can't find a home
I've seen things I wish that I didn't see
But darling that's all that we'll ever be

Oh, and I'm an escape artist, I have my own little world
You'll never find it, you'll never know
You'll never see it, you'll never go where I go when I slip into silence
Now I'm breaking my silence, breaking my silence

This is my sound addiction, this is my sound
This is my sound addiction, this is my sound
