The Basis On Which I Speak
Tonight is silent
I hear no sound at all
The dark sky is brilliant
And I still get no call
Not knowing where we belong
Seems this world can be so wrong
Where do we turn
Now that we know all we can learn
When the light cries out
Making me want to scream and shout
I know this is not the end
This life's not pretend
I lost everything now
I thought I'd forever keep here somehow
And I've done all I can do
Still my thoughts drift back to you
This all ended so wrong
Not knowing where we belong
This night is too silent
And I still sit here alone
Waiting for a fake conversation to come on a phone
Something she told me was something she'd do
Now I am sitting here wondering if she is like you
And the God to which I'm praying
Won't show his face right now
Please listen to what I'm saying
I want a better life for me and you somehow
Help the hurtful memories to fade
Allow me to get lost here in the shade
Let me sleep away the day
For that is the only way
To get back on my feet once again
