House of Silence 2010

In my dreams I met a girl
Somewhere down the river
She took me to an ancient house
She looked young but also wise
Something made me shiver
She was born dead and alive
And I could see
The ravens fly

In the house of silence
Far from here
Distant voices coming out of the air
The house of silence and of tears
Shadows dancing for a hundred years
And they cry

I saw her speak
But couldn’t hear
What the girl was saying
And sadness filled the misty night
Then I tried to hold her back
While she was slowly fading
And bitter sweet was her smile
And I could see
The ravens fly

In the house of silence
Far from here
Distant voices coming out of the air
The house of silence and of tears
Shadows dancing for a hundred years
And they cry

In the house of silence
Far from here
Distant voices coming out of the air
The house of silence and of tears
Shadows dancing for a hundred years
And they cry
