Steve Vai - Silent Within lyrics

Endless time is arriving in this lost and found What is now was always but never seemed to be In the breath of a heartbeat the walls tumble down An elusive light and sound enraptured me But I remain in my body Words fail to describe what we feel when we die inside God only knows what we're feeling when the lights grow dim Is there really a voice inside in the silent within Torn apart by a twister of greed lust and pride When I bleed it's a need to be one with you Why is anger so hungry and love so blind Why do we hurt when we cry Well God only knows what we're dreaming in our ultimate sin Do we really hide anything in the silent within Silent within, within Ohh hide in your darkness And I'm dreaming today Only for a moment would you hear Oh slow me down Run away God only knows and He ain't talkin' In the sound and the light and the life There's no end to the bottom when we start to fall, There's no top to the high when we want to climb And this heart is a prison bound by chains of gold Wherein lies the keys God only knows how we're falling While reaching for Him In this vacuum of time and space in the silent within God only knows within It's a drop from the ocean A star from the sky A grain of sand from the earth A tear from an eye When the light is before us And shines in our life In the silent within God only knows
