lirik lagu john edmond - the deafening silence
it was quiet down at the vatican
westminster and saint paul’s
but the silence at whitehall and in the white house
was the loudest silence of all
outside a new york high rise
united nations’ flags are unfurled
but inside that shining house of glass
were the silent voices of the world
these are all the worldly places
where the word democracy
is bandied round with other words like
justice, truth and honеsty
these are all thе hypocrite haunts
where all the powers that be
speak up load against all crimes
against humanity
but when god’s lightning fills the sky
thunder follows from his kingdom on high
proclaiming his power and glory and might
to a dark dark world as dark as the night;
but when an airliner’s shot to the ground
no condemnation from the world ~ not a sound
the west fears the east and has nothing to say
but the deafening silence~the deafening silence
will be broken one day!
but where were they those tragic days
they shot our viscounts down
and their murderous apprentices
k!lled children without a frown
they bayonetted babies and shot survivors
and to this very day
everyone in those hallowed halls
has yet not had a word to say
but when god’s lightning fills the sky
thunder follows from his kingdom on high
proclaiming his power and glory and might
to a dark dark world as dark as the night;
but when an airliner’s shot to the ground
no condemnation from the world ~ not a sound
the west fears the east and has nothing to say
but the deafening silence ~ the deafening silence
will be broken one day!
but we will break that silence
with reminders down through the years
for closure for men and women and children
though no one can forget the tears
but we all know we must meet our maker;
and at the front of the row queue will be that crowd
and they will be asked to answer why
their silence was so loud
but when god’s lightning fills the sky
thunder follows from his kingdom on high
proclaiming his power and glory and might
to a dark dark world as dark as the night;
but when an airliner’s shot to the ground
no condemnation from the world ~ not a sound
the west fears the east and has nothing to say
but the deafening silence ~ the deafening silence
will be broken one day!
day… day… day…
