silence

I like silent moments. I even like longer periods of silence. But silence also can become a threat: Kill lover's love or a family's fellowship, destroy virtually every relationship. For I think that the core of religion and faith is staying in conversation with the "greater dimension", silence at the wrong time can choke a life of transcendence and spirituality to death. At least I - I need to keep talking and listening to God every day to stay alive.

Lyrics

Where are the days when I talked to you?
Where are the nights I could sing to you?
I hate this silence
I hate this silence
Where are the days when I prayed to you?
Where are the nights I could feel you?
I hate this silence
I hate this silence
I hate this silence between us

Where is the love I felt for you?
It's so long ago I shared my secrets with you!
I hate this silence
I hate this silence
So tell me now: Are you waiting to here me, too?
What shall I do? Can you show me a way back to you?
Do you hate this silence?
Do you hate this silence?
Do you hate this silence between us?

All around me is that silence of my soul!
I try to sing my song but it echoes off the wall
Deafened by my tears
I beg you
please touch my ears!
I want to hear you clear!
I want to feel you near!
I'm so ashamed of my fears!

This is the day I came back to you, my friend
I could speak no more, but I will sing songs again
You filled up that silence
You filled it!
I'll take care of this love, so it will grow with time
You put freedom back in the emptiness of mine
You fill up all silence
You fill up all silence
You filled up that silence between us
