Silence Is Killing

Lyrics by Adam King, music by The False Heroics

Silence is killing you and me
Accompliced by our own complacency
You stretch your arms across the couch where you lie
While corporate identities, they crucify

Silence is killing you and me
Accomplished by our own morality
You stretch your arms across the office room
Justice spreads her legs a little too soon

And slowly our chance fades
Opportunity slips away
We’ve got a lot to lose
But can’t you see—there’s heaven and earth to gain

Silence is killing you and me
Accompliced by our our own greed
You read the holy book and threw it in the fire
Watch that funeral pyre burn higher and higher

And slowly our chance fades
Opportunity slips away
We’ve got a lot to lose
But can’t you see—there’s heaven and earth to gain

So what will you choose?
Couch hovering over the fire
Or this long and winding road
We’ve got our lives to lose
But can’t you see—there’s heaven and earth to gain

If they’ve got so much to give
Why do they want your soul?
If you’ve got this life to live
Why are you so cold?
