A Quiet Condition

from Death and Perspective by Silent Line

/

about

One of the singles released early from the album.

This is guaranteed to be on our setlist! We love playing this song and it is one of the strongest we have ever written.

lyrics

Oblivious
To all that surrounds me
Another day
Where colours return to grey
Trade this life for another
Hopeful and clean
Awake alive
Signed up, sight unseen

Racing by
Past all these other lives
I cry
And denounce all their actions

It warms my heart to see you now
At a standstill
Trust the lie will get you by
A quiet condition

These sands of time are running dry
Drift away
An attempt to quench your thirst with wine
It's a viscous circle

Impervious
To all that surrounds me
Falling away
A mote of dust caught in a beam
Give your time to another
See them through
Take my hand in yours
There's so much that we can do

These sands of time are running dry
Drift away
An attempt to quench your thirst with wine
It's never-ending
These sands of time are flying by
Drift away
An attempt to quench your thirst with wine
It's a quiet condition
