A Silent Drum

I pretend the only reason I am here is to be the one that you endear

Grab a hold of what you fear, and erase it all

Oh Mother, the world is wearing down and you're the only thing I need

The only reason I can even keep my head below the clouds

Without you it's pointless, alone I am helpless

The air interrupted by the gases that we sow

I can barely recognize your face, oh how it use to glow

I cannot stand this fucking world

All alone here we are, I can feel your heart

As it beats a silent drum

Now my body's going numb

This isn't our end

As long as you're near me

I'm seeing clearly now

Let's live like it's just us

We can make the best of the world that they left us

Now I'm the one you trust

In the age of disgust I can help you conquer anything

We'll accomplish everything that comes in the midst of the end of days

This is our time to persevere through the greatest evil known to man:

The governing hand

Don't let me die, don't let it crush me inside

I only trust what these eyes can see

Son just open up your eyes and look past those glowing skies

Just recall those times that are keeping us alive

All alone here we are, I can feel your heart

As it beats a silent drum

Now my body's going numb

This isn't our end

As long as I'm near you

Nothing can tear you down

Let's live like it's just you and I

I can build us a home from what's left of our lives

Smoke fills my lungs as I awaken in this hell we call home

But the more I reminisce of yesterday

I find we only need each other, not a sister nor a brother

All alone here we are, I can feel your heart

As it beats a silent drum

Now my body's going numb

All alone here we are, I can feel your heart

As it beats a silent drum

Now my body's going numb

This isn't our end

As long as I'm near you

Nothing can tear you down

Let's live like it's just you and I

I can build us a home from what's left of our lives
