"Deafening Silence" lyrics - SERJ TANKIAN

I know who you are
I know who you are not
I know who you are
I know who you are not

The silence is deafening to my ears
How could the obvious be ignored
The silence is threatening then she appears
The ceremony is performed

I'm here to paint you with my tears
Decried my spirit over my fears
I can't walk away from all the years
Serene and sad, she disappears

Hands of my mind
My thoughts trembling
The hands of time
Time always meddling

The silence is deafening to my ears
How could the obvious be ignored?
The silence is threatening and she appears
The ceremony is performed

I'm here to paint you with my tears
Decried my spirit over my fears
I can't walk away from all the years
Serene and sad, she disappears

Night-lights are for children, mornings for adults
Non-egalitarian equinox
The hands of my mind, my thoughts trembling
The hands of time, time always meddling

Silence is deafening to my ears
How could the obvious, be ignored
The silence is threatening then she appears
The ceremony will always be performed

The silence is deafening to my ears
Seized by the impressions of passers in the night

I'm here to paint you with my tears
Decried my spirit over my fears
I can't walk away from all the years
Serene and sad, she disappears

I'm here to paint you with my tears
Decried my spirit over my fears
I can't walk away from all the years
Serene sad, she reappears

I know who you are
