No Greater Force Than Silence

lyrics

Say something
You have to make this better
Because I don't know where I begin
The silence that surrounds has even projected from within
This reality that's left me speechless and broken
Remind me never to open my stupid mouth again

One million breaths spent on one million questions
One breath on an answer that would make you regret them
I may never tell
and you may somehow see
The effect that that answer
has had upon me
I cannot erase
and I cannot take back
these words now looked upon
as a verbal attack
I just don't understand
how this could be
If there's anything there please just say it to me

SAY SOMETHING
You know
Silence is actually impossible
To achieve
As long as your heart beats and you're able to breathe
You'll always hear something
Even if it's just in your head
But the silence I feel now makes me wish I was dead
So what's left to do now the damage has been done
The door's been bust wide open with the opportunity to run
Now laid out in front of you
I've now cleared the path
What's left next
has been left in your hands

One million breaths spent on one million questions
One breath on an answer that would make you regret them
I may never tell
and you may somehow see
The effect that that answer
has had upon me
I cannot erase
and I cannot take back
these words now looked upon
as a verbal attack
I just don't understand
how this could be
If there's anything there please just say it to me

There is no

THERE IS NOOOOOOOOO
There is no greater force than the nothing I'm feeling right now
A silence so strong it's tearing the both of us down

No greater force than silence
Or so it seems
but this quiet torture outweighs all the screams

One million breaths spent on
one million questions
One breath on an answer that would make you regret them
I may never tell
and you may somehow see
The effect that that answer
has had upon me
I cannot erase
and I cannot take back
these words now looked upon
as a verbal attack
I just don't understand
how this could be
If there's anything there please just say it to me

about

The Hostiles South Ayrshire, UK

The Hostiles capture the upbeat energy of US west coast ska punk in the slightly less-sunny climes of west coast Scotland. Spirited and infectious, they combine distorted guitars riffs, low-slung rhythms, in-your-face vocals and a two-pronged brass backbone of trumpet and trombone. Good times guaranteed. ... more
