Breaking Your Silence - Generationals

You were shot down for banging on sidewalks

Waking up sovereign states

Raking up graves and wasting your common grace

Creatures outside were posting your face up

Dreaming up shadow plays

If you could straighten that spine

You got a way to decide your fate

Instead of breaking your silence

You could be the same way

And keep your favors to yourself, but

They could see in your eyes

There’s not a thing they could say so

Holding on tight to places you remember

Keeping your story straight

Taking your time with friends you invite to your wake

You were so tired of waking up, shaking

Facing your passing days

Rolling in circles, hoping the fever would break

Instead of breaking your word

You can pay to make sure

They never back the train up, but

They can read in your mind

You got a reason to stay

Instead of breaking your silence

You could be the same way

And keep your favors to yourself, but

They could see in your eyes

There’s not a thing they could say so

Instead of breaking your word

You can pay to make sure

They never back the train up, but

They can read in your mind

You got a reason to stay

Instead of breaking your silence

You could be the same way

And keep your favors to yourself, but

They could see in your eyes

There’s not a thing they could say so

Instead of breaking your word

You can pay to make sure

They never back the train up, but

They can read in your mind

You got a reason to stay
