Silencing

Lyrics: Oliver Gabbay/Siobhan Meaker Music: Oliver Gabbay/Siobhan Meaker There’s a door open But I can’t walk through Though I try and I try And there’s a whole future I plan with you In this finite time But it feels like trying to light a fire won’t work You come to me but then you drown the flame I’m shouting down to you, why you can’t hear me? Self-silencing these years I never knew And I’m holding out my hand why can’t you grab it? Are you the one that’s silencing for you? There’s a small window where light gets through That you can’t block out And there’s a sharp focus on me and you And I won’t stand down But it feels like trying to light a fire won’t work You come to me but then you kill the flame I’m shouting down to you if you can hear me Self-silencing these years I never knew And I’m holding out my hand why don’t you grab it? Are you the one that’s silencing the truth? Are you the one that’s silencing the truth?
