Silence
Bryde Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So, I'm as restless as a child
Full like a rain cloud, this desire
Come around turn the volume down on violence
We are digging for diamonds in the fire

Can I come in can I be part of this silence?
And leave you with my heart on the outside
Can I come in can you satisfy this feeling?
I want it to be more than redeeming

There, there's a moment when it shows
Cuts like a poem through the prose
Have we found something bigger than us both
Coloured the words I left unspoken

Can I come in can I be part of this silence?
And leave you with my heart on the outside
Can I come in can you satisfy this feeling?
I want it to be more than redeeming

And we're floating now
On something new
The clouds in me
The moon in you
Get the best of me
the worst I've been




Get the best of me
Take the rest, take the rest of me
