I will not speak-this silence is my cost
A muted cry for all that I have lost
In shadowed years that mortals dare call life
Words flow like poison cutting like a knife
No words no lies just silence remains
A heavy cross a heart in chains
In love's pure light the darkness grew
My atonement-forever for you
Our words like venom pierce the soul
And lead us toward a blackened goal
I ask you now with trembling breath
Why love is paired with sorrow's death?
No words no lies just silence remains
A heavy cross a heart in chains
In love's pure light the darkness grew
My atonement-forever for you
Where is the paradise we once could see?
Its warmth its hope now lost to me
Its tender glow a fleeting flame
Extinguished now-I bear the blame
No words no lies just silence remains
A heavy cross a heart in chains
In love's pure light the darkness grew
My atonement-forever for you
No need for words-just let them fade
This silent plea the price I've paid
In quiet shadows I'll remain
A soul bound tight by love and pain
