Silence Lyrics - Slick Shoes

Now I have always wondered 

How can I stand upon your shoulders 

Look around and around and round 

And not see a thing? 

It always seemed confusing 

Your jokes are never amusing 

You can talk, talk, talk and not say a thing 

We could fall below and never make a sound 

The truth is frightening now 

Will we ever get out? 

You always try to listen 

And for that gift I feel threatened 

By the high esteem I hold you, it hurts so much 

I wipe the dust off of my face 

It's all that's left of my dreams misplaced 

I find it hard to believe you could take much more
