SINGING IN SILENCE
SINGING in silence, judas and the king,
judas is about to hang himself, and the
king, walking away.
SINGING in silence, penetrating the dark,
scratching the excavations, for some lost
art, only to find dirt and more dirt.
SINGING silence, jesus and his friends,
theres wine at this banquet, and bread
and more bread.
SINGING in silence,
singing in silence,
as they watch the king die on that
cross.

Silence
A crowded train
a thousand voices
the earth erupts
silence
now the survivors
start to scream
from the dead
silence
there is no fear
just angry questions
we ask why
silence
you seek surrender
but we will endure
all you'll hear is
silence
God sees your deeds
you cant prevail
your pleas just bring
silence

Listening Back
There are no comrade roses at my window,
No green things in the lane;
Upon the roof no sibilant soft patter-
The lullaby of rain;
Without is silence, and within is silence,
Till silence grows a pain.
Within is silence, and without is silence,
The snow is on the sill,
In snow the window wreathd instead of roses,
And snow is very still....
I wonder is it singing in the grasses,
The rain, on Russian Hill?

The Silence That Lives On
I'm sitting in the corner nowhere to run
Here comes the silence, there goes the fun
Trying to put the pieces back together
Knowing that the silence will live on forever
Trapped inside with my deepest fears
The silence is so strong voices are not clear
Hard to fight my way out of this place
Wanting to leave the silence without a trace
All the bad things go away and be gone
For I am left with the silence that lives on
