From Silence

The sky today
It all was gray
And it preyed
On my sorrow
And back at home
I was all alone
Just like a stone
That couldn’t be thrown

Sometimes I fear
To play the music
‘Cause the music
Sets me free
And my captivity
It’s comforting, you see
And even when I call
There’s no response at all
And I’m crying
I’m dying
To let go

She sits at home
Her children grown
Have left her home
Her work is over
The race was won
Still she longs to run
But the setting sun
Has left her in darkness

Sometimes she fears
To play the music
‘Cause the music sets her free
And her captivity
It’s comforting you see
And even when she calls
There’s no response at all
She’s crying
She’s dying
To let go

We must be still
Before we dance
‘Cause from silence
We’re able
To hear the music

Let us be still
Before we dance
‘Cause from silence
We’re able
To make our music

Sometimes we fear
To play the music
‘Cause the music sets us free
And our captivity
It’s comforting you see
And even when we call
There’s no response at all
And we’re crying
We’re dying
To let go

The sky today
It all was gray
But that’s okay…
