The way you keep the world at bay
It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
They're warning us to back away
But I just wanna hold on to
And everyone is running
The easy silence that you make for me
And the way you keep the world at bay for me
Messages and misperceptions
And the peaceful, quiet you create for me
They form commissions trying to find
Breathing sanctuary
It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
And I come to find a refuge
In the easy silence that you make for me

I need something to believe in

It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me

And anger plays on every station
The next one they can crucify
And the way you keep the world at bay for me

And the way you keep the world at bay for me
And the peaceful, quiet you create for me
The easy silence that you make for me
Burning fumes and gasoline

Watching war made us immune
And the peaceful, quiet you create for me
The way you keep the world at bay
Children lose their youth too soon
I've got all the world to lose
The monkeys on the barricades
Paralyze my mind
It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
And the way you keep the world at bay for me
Buses, cars and airplanes leaving
Answers only make more questions
In the easy silence that you make for me
And the peaceful, quiet you create for me
The way you keep the world at bay for me
The way you keep the world at bay
