Fell into a song at 12 years old Never learnt to let go noone taught me so And I've collected every card I've had As if each memory runs away but I'm too slow to catch
Now I'm living off the land My melodies are crops to hand And I sell it to the bands (Sell it to the bands)
And I'm playing every role Juggling the masks Like it's a one woman show (Well, surely they know)
And I hear the sirens Haunting me The crowd goes quiet It's on my horizon Haunting me The sound of silence
Every time they left I planted seeds Rising out the darkness 'cause the silence frightened me And everybody thought I'd shout retreat But I won't wave my white flag at an algorithm Please don't make me
Lie about my age Pay the keepers at the gate Make my lose a little weight (Lose a little weight) Film my quiet fate While I'm losing all my faith As they pull me off the stage
And I hear the sirens Haunting me The crowd goes quiet It's on my horizon I can hear The sound of silence
(Ooh)
And I hear the sirens Haunting me The crowd goes quiet It's on my horizon I can hear The sound of silence
