The Great Silence

Radiant sky, grains of sand
Abandoned hope in this godforsaken land
In empty towns, long lost dreams
Like silhouettes in the restless wind
Gonna ride away now
Through the ruins, the sadness
And the flames —
Into the night
In the shade of your dream
In the shade that you sleep
Into the night
In the shade of your dream
The great silence is here
I’ve seen the pictures the day before:
Your eyes so sad, and now you’re gone
There’s no surrender: only blood on our hands
No forgiveness, no forgiveness
Gonna ride away now
Through the ruins, the sadness
And the pain —
Into the night
In the shade of your dream
In the shade that you sleep
Into the night
In the shade of your dream
The great silence is here
Radiant sky, grains of sand
Abandoned hope in this godforsaken land
Haunting voices, their long lost dreams
Dead flowers grow where the resless sleep
Gonna ride away now
Through the ruins, the sadness
And the flames —
Into the night
In the shade of your dream
In the shade that you sleep
Into the night
In the shade of your dream
The great silence is here
Comes the morning
Been here too long
The day after the day before
I heard you calling, but the wind blows
Gonna ride away now
Through the ruins, the sadness
And the pain —
Into the night
In the shade of your dream
In the shade that you sleep
Into the night
In the shade of your dream
The great silence is here
Gonna ride away now
Through the ruins, the sadness
And the pain —
Into the night
In the shade of your dream
In the shade that you sleep
Into the night
In the shade of your dream
The great silence
Into the night
In the shade of your dream
In the shade that you sleep
Into the night
In the shade of your dream
The great silence is here
The great silence is here
The great silence is here
