Intro: C Em Am F 

"Silent Times" 

C 
The cars go screaming by 
                    Em 
But I can't hear a thing inside my mind 
                   Am 
I couldn't even shout to ask you why 
                        F 
Why you stopped believing 

C 
No sound to this heart beat 
                    Em 
I only feel the trains beneath my feet 
                      Am 
The ground is shaking now or is it me 
                           F 
'cause I've lost all feeling 
                  C 
In this quiet place 

C                    Em 
These are silent times 
                     Am 
The words wither away 
                           F 
Just like a flower that dies 
                          C  
There's nothing left to say 

**Repeat The Chords Above 

You tell yourself you're fine 
But inside you despise your quiet lies 
There's no way to disguise what's in your eyes 
The tears that are streaming 

And how can you explain? 
When no one understands a word you say 
And everything that's left will fade to grey 
And lose all its meaning 
What to say 

These are silent times 
The words wither away 
Just like a flower that dies 
There's nothing left to say 

And these are silent times 
We hide it all away 
There's nothing left but space 
There's nothing left to save 

Silence is all you've left behind 
Its only purpose to remind 
Me of the time I can't rewind 
There's nothing left to save 

Words only break your heart again 
Too late to ever make amends 
Lost all your faith and confidence 
There's nothing left to say 
There's nothing left to say  
There's nothing left to say  
There's nothing left to say  

'Cause these are silent times 
The words wither away 
Just like a flower that dies 
There's nothing left to say 

And these are quiet times 
We hide it all away 
There's nothing left but space 
There's nothing left to save
