Silence - Tom Robinson

Well I woke up screaming when I found you gone

And now I can’t even sleep without the TV on

'Cause I can’t stand the silence

In the night

Well the bed is empty but the room is full

Of all the memories of things you used to do

I just can’t stand the silence

In the night

When it’s four in the morning and I’m lost in the dark

'Cause I can’t find the target and I’m missing my mark

All my faith starts fading as the palpitations start

This silence is a nightmare and it’s tearing me apart

I can stand the loneliness

Friends who never call

The chance remarks of strangers

And the writing on the wall

I just can’t stand the silence

In the night

Coincidences make crazy sense

And I still feel you with me in the present tense

I just can’t stand the silence

In the night

When it’s four in the morning and I’m lost in the dark

'Cause I can’t find the target and I’m missing my mark

All my faith starts fading as the palpitations start

This silence is a nightmare and it’s tearing me apart

I can take uncertainty

And I can handle pain

And I can stand the emptiness

That’s with me once again

I can stand the loneliness

Friends who never call

The chance remarks of strangers

And the writing on the wall

I just can’t stand the silence

In the night
