Washed away and I can't remember   How it feels to be real, oh no   Played to what I'm supposed to be   Not who I am, 'cause I don't know   Don't turn the T.V. off   I need the noise to escape my thoughts      Quiet   Too much loud I can't hear   The whispers of my maker   Quiet   I'm listening to the sound of silence   To make it all clear   To understand me, I need quiet      So many distractions in front of me   I cannot see an end that's free   Selfish thoughts wrestle for my attention   And some to foolish for me to mention   I don't want pain to wake me up   These crowed thoughts they have to stop, and      Quiet   Too much loud I can't hear   The whispers of my maker   Quiet   I'm listening to the sound of silence   To make it all clear   To understand me, I need quiet      I wanna walk with you   In quiet   Talk with you   In quiet   Hear you, feel you   Since you make me like you   In quiet      Quiet   Too much loud I can't hear   The whispers of my maker   Quiet   I'm listening to the sound of silence   To make it all clear   To understand me, I need quiet
