Intro: C Em Am F
"Silent Times"
C
The cars go screaming by
Em
But I can't hear a thing inside my mind
Am
I couldn't even shout to ask you why
F
Why you stopped believing
C
No sound to this heart beat
Em
I only feel the trains beneath my feet
Am
The ground is shaking now or is it me
F
'cause I've lost all feeling
C
In this quiet place
C Em
These are silent times
Am
The words wither away
F
Just like a flower that dies
C
There's nothing left to say
**Repeat The Chords Above
You tell yourself you're fine
But inside you despise your quiet lies
There's no way to disguise what's in your eyes
The tears that are streaming
And how can you explain?
When no one understands a word you say
And everything that's left will fade to grey
And lose all its meaning
What to say
These are silent times
The words wither away
Just like a flower that dies
There's nothing left to say
And these are silent times
We hide it all away
There's nothing left but space
There's nothing left to save
Silence is all you've left behind
Its only purpose to remind
Me of the time I can't rewind
There's nothing left to save
Words only break your heart again
Too late to ever make amends
Lost all your faith and confidence
There's nothing left to say
There's nothing left to say
There's nothing left to say
There's nothing left to say
'Cause these are silent times
The words wither away
Just like a flower that dies
There's nothing left to say
And these are quiet times
We hide it all away
There's nothing left but space
There's nothing left to save
