Deafening Silence — Serj Tankian

I know who you are I know who you are not I know who you are I, I know who you are not

The silence is deafening to my ears How could the obvious be ignored? The silence is threatening when she appears The ceremony is performed

I'll paint a picture with my tears Decried my spirit over my fears I can't walk away from all the years Serene inside, she disappears

Ends of my mind, my thoughts trembling The hands of time, time always meddling

The silence is deafening to my ears How could the obvious be ignored? The silence is threatening when she appears The ceremony is performed

I'll paint a picture with my tears Decried my spirit over my fears I can't walk away from all the years Serene inside, she disappears

Nightlights are for children Italian equinox The hands of my mind, my thoughts trembling The hands of time, time always meddling Silence is deafening to my ears How could the obvious be ignored? The silence is threatening when she appears The ceremony will always be performed

The silence is deafening to my ears Seized by the impressions of passers in the night

I'll paint a picture with my tears Decried my spirit over my fears I can't walk away from all the years Serene inside, she disappears

I'll paint a picture with my tears Decried my spirit over my fears I can't walk away from all the years Serene inside, she reappears

I know who you are
