Still

So still, that each of us knew, this is
Forever, forever and a lifetime, and it was
So still, that each of us sensed, there’s no word for this,
That could ever describe the feeling.

So still, that all the clocks fell silent,
Yeah, time came to a halt.
So still and so lost, you drifted away,
So still and so lost, you drifted away.

I’ve heard so much, yet it never sinks in,
That’s why I can’t sleep at night,
Even if I write a thousand songs about missing you,
It doesn’t mean I understand,
Why this feeling stays forever.

So loud, the hours after the impact when it mattered,
To grasp it all and understand, and it was
So loud, that everything we thought brought us nothing but emptiness,
So loud and so lost it was here,
When silence lived with us instead of you.

I’ve heard so much, yet it never sinks in,
That’s why I can’t sleep at night,
Even if I write a thousand songs about missing you,
It doesn’t mean I understand,
Why this feeling stays forever.

So still, even though I miss you more each day,
And wherever you are right now,
You show me that silence has become your friend.

I’ve heard so much, yet it never sinks in,
That’s why I can’t sleep at night,
Even if I write a thousand songs about missing you,
It doesn’t mean I understand,
It doesn’t mean I understand.

I’ve heard so much, yet it never sinks in,
That’s why I can’t sleep at night,
Even if I write a thousand songs about missing you,
It doesn’t mean I understand,
Why this feeling stays forever.
