Owl John Ten Tons Of Silence
You can't just leave me here
Buried deep beneath ten tons of silence
You won't believe how quickly
Peace turns into bloody violence
Start of cobbling words
Nothing stirs beneath ten tons of silence
I can't believe how swiftly
Warmth turns into cold defiance
You can't just leave me here
Unforgiven under ten tons of silence
Condemned to lie endlessly;
Watch as peace turns to bloody violence
And the stiffening begins
Muscle comes born
I am fossilized, calcified, the stupor sets in
Dumb as a stone, I am wide-eyed, petrified, uncivilized grins
As we suffer kit-long and ten tons are lifted, I am fine
I am fine
I am fine
Never leave me here
Buried deep beneath ten tons of silence
You won't believe how quickly
Peace turns into bloody violence
