Ken Thomas - SOS lyrics

For you, I'll sing this song Please stay, it won't last long Years after we are long gone The meaning will stay strong Silence is what this song's about Numb to the world all around But I will sing of this place Hoping it finds you some way People needing to be saved Scream out for help every day But we grow numb to the sounds And feelings slowly start to drown The first time, we can hear a voice But soon it all becomes noise Fading to silence in the end I know it doesn't make sense… When sound all ceases to exist People think that means happiness And all the sounds that used to be Are all just noise to you and me The cries of help disappear The silence numbs all of our ears And when we stop listening Those screams stop meaning anything Don't you let your heart grow numb to everyone Oh child, listen to the "sound of silence" Saving someone else means saving yourself It's true, and I'm sure you know it too When you hear an "SOS" Answering it becomes a test It can give the life you lead A meaning that you'd never seen So don't resist a call for help Cause in the end it will tell you How to treasure yourself And not be alone It might seem a little strange To share this song this way But I know what I must do Is share the meaning with you All this I learned from someone Who spent his life among People screaming out for help Doing everything to reach out Don't you let your heart grow numb to everyone Oh child, listen to the "sound of silence" Saving someone else means saving yourself It's true, and I'm sure you know it too Don't you let your heart grow numb to everyone Oh child, listen to the "sound of silence" Saving someone else means saving yourself It's true, and I'm sure you know it too Don't you let your heart grow numb to everyone Oh child, listen to the "sound of silence" Saving someone else means saving yourself It's true, and I'm sure you know it too Now I'd like to thank you for staying by my side…
