There in the Silence

Savatage · Poets and Madmen [2001]

Here on this night behind walls made of stone

Where no one can enter and the dark dreams alone

But now someone's entered, the walls are defied

The shadows they watched while the dark sympathized



But there in the silence

But there in the silence

But there in the silence



Something hides

Something lies

Something dies

Something breathes



The mind can imagine, the dark can deceive

And here on this night, together they weave

A shadow's repentance, a forgotten life

All brought together in the mercy of night



But there in the silence

But there in the silence

But there in the silence



Something hides

Something lies

Something dies

Something breathes



But there in the silence

But there in the silence

But there in the silence

But there in the silence



Something hides

Something lies

Something dies

Something breathes
