You told me twice, 'You never lie' Said 'Cross my heart and hope to die' You wait until the day begins Close your eyes and hold it in You feel it up against your will 'Cos no one told you that silence k**s Silence k**s It's been a week or maybe two Locked away inside your room With no emotion, slow decay Never guessed you felt this way
You see the sun lies on the hills But no one told you that silence k**s Silence k**s So wear a ribbon in your clothes And hope that someone out there knows So recoginise times of distress And paralysing helplessness Your finger's on the windowsill 'Cos no one told you that silence k**s Silence k**s
