Silence Is Golden Songtext
von Trash Boat

War with an enemy we cannot reach
So we turn our rage to the man on the street
No profit in unity
Our silence no longer speaks

Face it, you know you′re never gonna change it
From subliminal to blatant, keeping you complacent, terrified
Fake it, I'd do anything to make it
All alone I sit upon my throne, it′s so close I can taste it

Push in and split the skin
Give in to sin

Obey? You should know by now
You can't hold me down
Better watch your mouth
Or I'll knock you out
Obey? You should know by now
We stand our ground
Better watch your mouth
One slip and they′ll snuff you out


You′re the first and last word, who's first and who′s third?
You took all their worth and the worst is unheard of
The puppets narrate the word of the day
They're talking in circles, I need to think straight
So I followed the water up stream
And now I can′t hear myself think
The river moans, the ocean's woes, it never sleeps

Obey? You should know by now
You can′t hold me down
Better watch your mouth
Or I'll knock you out
Obey? You should know by now
We stand our ground
Better watch your mouth
One slip and they'll snuff you out

War with an enemy we can′t reach
So we turn our rage to the man on the street
We wait for compassion to overcome self interest
Far too patiently
We′re still slaves to a media driven binary
'Cause those that know know there′s no profit in unity
Our silence no longer speaks

Silence is golden
To those who control it


Obey? You should know by now
You can't hold me down
Better watch your mouth
Or I′ll knock you out
Obey? You should know by now
We stand our ground
Better watch your mouth
One slip and they'll snuff you out
