There’s a cool web of silence winds us in
Words melt us down, so we spin again
The less we speak the less we cry
You and I

There’s a hotbed of anger just ahead
Close your mouth until you’re led through the fire
To the clouds where the cool, cool silence winds us in

Maybe
I should have told you that I was afraid
You could have faded away

There’s the comfort of strangers every night
I’m aware that how I hide isn’t right
Here I go to the cool, cool silence

There’s a cool web of silence winds us in
Words melt us down, so we spin again
The less we speak the less we cry
You and I, you and I
