Silence Answers

Not AfrAId - Of Silence

[Intro - Shakuhachi]

[Verse]

Oh I fade for you

In rooms too quiet to argue

I tore the air

but the silence (silence, silence)

won’t let me break

[Chorus]

Still - when you’re gone, I hum alone

Let the hush become my home

I could lie and say I’m fine

But silence (silence). Answers every time

[Verse]

I learned your voice by letting go

Each breath a bell, each pause a note

You called me friend, but kept me far

I watched the party from the dark

[Chorus]

Still - when you’re gone, I hum alone

Let the hush become my home

I could lie and say I’m fine

But silence (silence). Answers every time

[vocalisation]

[bridge]

Not all endings need a sound

Not all ghosts wear chains around

Let it go, let it slow

Let me echo (echo) what I know

[outro]

I could lie and say I’m fine

But silence (silence)

Answers (answers)

Every...

Time.
