Silence Is King Lyrics - Tanya Tucker

She tests every word like a fine wine 

She holds every thought like her last dime 

You can hear a pin drop from miles away 

You can hear a heart stop as plain as day 

We live in a land where silence is king 

Whispers have all disappeared 

Cry for an echo, you won't hear a thing 

Silence is king around here 

Silence is king around here

Where are the dreams we were after 

Where is the joy and the laughter 

Were they only habits we were doomed to lose 

Or is destiny not ours to choose 

We live in a land where silence is king 

Whispers have all disappeared 

Cry for an echo, you won't hear a thing 

Silence is king around here 

Silence is king around here 

Desperate measures come from desperate times 

I don't regret what I have done 

If my actions made you speak your mind 

Angry words are better than none
