Dan Wilson - Easy Silence lyrics

When the calls and conversations Accidents and accusations Messages and mis-perceptions Paralyze my mind Busses, cars, and airplanes leavin' Burnin' fumes of gasoline and Everyone is running and I Come to find a refuge in the [Chorus] Easy silence that you make for me It's OK when there's nothing more to say to me And the peaceful quiet you create for me And the way you keep the world at bay for me The way you keep the world at bay Monkeys on the barricades Are warning us to back away They form commissions trying to find The next one they can crucify And anger plays on every station Answers only make more questions I need something to believe in Breathe in sanctuary in the [Chorus] Children lose their youth too soon Watching war made us immune And I've got all the world to lose But I just want to hold on to the [Chorus: x2] The way you keep the world at bay for me The way you keep the world at bay
