lyrics

Silence is a refuge I go to when I must
Words are not sufficient things I cannot trust
Letters strung together to make a thought complete
are just that merely letters the thought cannot compete

Silence then is safer misunderstanding not allowed
For no one can twist or turn something never said aloud
Verses in my head stay there for all time
Covered by the chit chat that no one seems to mind

Bridge

They hear what comes out verbally not what is in my head
If only they could hear my thoughts they'd likely wish me dead
So silence as a refuge protects me as I stay
In places where no one listens in the night or in the day
