TAKING THE SILENCE

Its so terrifying - lying to myself
I can't deny it - its you and no one else
Living in the future - standing alone
Weighing all the damage - picking up the phone

Taking the silence - feeling the heat
Taking the silence - I get what I need

I thought I had will power - but I didn't have enough
To battle with my ego and stay off that heady stuff
The past is behind you no need to look away
Fear said you're leaving - my prayers said you'll stay

Taking the silence - feeling the heat
Taking the silence - I get what I need

I was a man of action - my feet stuck in the sand
I got a new way of acting - I know how to make a stand
I don't need a movie - no need to run away
I'm not into stealing I want to pay

Taking the silence feeling the heat
Taking the silence I get what I need
