Trash Boat - Silence Is Golden lyrics

[Intro] War with an enemy we can't reach So we turn our rage to the man on the street No profit in unity Our silence no longer speaks [Verse 1] Face it, you know you're never gonna change it From subliminal to blatant, keeping you complacent or terrified Fake it, I'd do anything to make it All alone I sit upon my throne, it's so close I can taste it [Pre-Chorus] Push in and split the skin Give in to sin [Chorus] Obey? You should know by now You can't hold me down Better watch your mouth Or I'll knock you out Obey? You should know by now We stand our ground Better watch your mouth One slip and they'll snuff you out [Verse 2] You're the first and last word, who's first and who's third? You took all their worth and the worst is unheard of The puppets narrate the word of the day They're talking in circles, I need to think straight So I followed the water up stream And now I can't hear myself think The river moans, the ocean's woes, it never sleeps [Chorus] Obey? You should know by now You can't hold me down Better watch your mouth Or I'll knock you out Obey? You should know by now We stand our ground Better watch your mouth One slip and they'll snuff you out [Bridge] War with an enemy we can't reach So we turn our rage to the man on the street We wait for compassion to overcome self interest Far too patiently We're still slaves to a media driven binary 'Cause those that know know there's no profit in unity Our silence no longer speaks (Silence is golden) (To those who control it) [Chorus] Obey? You should know by now You can't hold me down Better watch your mouth Or I'll knock you out Obey? You should know by now We stand our ground Better watch your mouth One slip and they'll snuff you out
