When the calls and conversation
Accidents and accusations
Messages and misperceptions
Paralyze my mind

Buses, cars and airplanes leaving
Burning fumes and gasoline
And everyone is running
And I come to find a refuge

In the easy silence that you make for me
It's okay 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

The monkeys on the barricades
They're 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
Breathing sanctuary

In the easy silence that you make for me
It's okay 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

Children lose their youth too soon
Watching war made us immune
I've got all the world to lose
But I just wanna hold on to

The easy silence that you make for me
It's okay 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 easy silence that you make for me
It's okay 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 for me
The way you keep the world at bay
