Description
A dying man with a pale skin, eyes sunkenAnd lips and nose and fingers all calloused
To the sickness that was dying him
And I shut my eyes as the words faded
And I left the subways and the streets
And I left the sound of silence alone
From city to city and from star to star
The echoes of a thousand voices
On a thousand stars
A river of hair washing over the land
Before vanishing into the night
I have dreamt, once more, of the cold blue
Giant storm that filled the sky on Friday night
And on Saturday night they burned the man
His bones to ashes, in the beauty of the smoke
As the river of hair washed over the land
The smell of smoke lingered on and on
Until it faded in the moonlight
And the sound of silence became my own
The river of voice swept over the world
On every last morning
And on every last afternoon
As the rain filtered by the windows
The rain turned to sleet as the mud
Became slush
I have dreamt, once more, of the cold blue
Giant storm that filled the sky on Friday night
And on Saturday night they burned the man
His bones to ashes, in the beauty of the smoke
Colder and colder
The rain-smeared land, while the rain fell
Rain-slicked ground as far as the eye could see
Covered by puddles of pure rain
Red and tinged with grey
The whole world was a river of rose
As far as the eye could see
And when I looked back
All I saw was a wet purple light
And the sound of silence became my own
I turned from the river and did not look back
I passed the river, over the river of shadows
Saw your shadow on the trees above the swamp
The map of a strange land I still fear
Where the cold waters of a darkly sky
Shed their colours deep on the puddles that we leave
The sound of silence became my own
I walked through the rain with my head held high
Lost in the memory of a new city
Saw the sea before the sky froze
The sea was alive and splashing
Filling the city with warmth
I walked out into the rain on the evening of Saturday
I was standing in the shadow of a new moon
Saw the faces of those I loved before them
Saw the empty roads of wasted men
Saw the roads that have no ends
Saw the ugly clock in the far city
Saw the school that was running on time
The rain-smeared land, while the rain fell
Rain-slicked ground as far as the eye could see
Covered by puddles of pure rain
Red and tinged with grey
The whole world was a river of rose
As far as the eye could see
And when I looked back
All I saw was a wet purple light
And the sound of silence became my own
I turned from the river and did not look back
I passed the river, over the river of shadows
Saw your shadow on the trees above the swamp
The map of a strange land I still fear
Where the cold waters of a darkly sky
Shed their colours deep on the puddles that we leave
The sound of silence became my own
I took the bright smile from the evening cold
I felt that I could never take it back
The road that I chose was pretty sharp
It was a good road but nothing like home
The train was red hot but nothing like home
The desert was the night sky
And the moon was the moon that always is
And the magic of the ocean behind me
In the dark between my fingers
And the arms of my heart
I could never take that feeling back
Now you look, at all of the twisted snares
There's nothing left to do but fly, and lie, and rise
I walk alone in the dark
Down a dark road, and I hear you, calling
There's no getting away from me
What you wanted I gave you, I gave it all away
And there's a darkness where the heart is dead
And I hope that I can have a lovely life
There's no getting away from me
There's no getting away from me
There's no getting away from me
There's no getting away from me
There's no getting away from me
