Jeanna Murphy: Music
Silence
This was part of a 5 track demo that I did at Rumblefish in Portland OR back in 2005. It was the first time I ever recorded in a studio! Very exciting but totally stressful. Had just enough money to track each song twice... I think actually I only got one go-around with this one before my time ran out.
Chorus:
Silence, no more words
Just the ever-present wait
For something we know not of
A vision our minds can’t create
Silence, no more thoughts
That in time will lead to tears
So very many mistakes
Continue on our fears
Verse 1:
There we stood, here we stand
Waiting for a sign
What to do, where to be
Running out of time
Any other moment is
Better than right now
If we could be anywhere
Who would decide and how
Chorus:
Verse 2:
Life is hard but there it is
Forever will it stand
We’ve made mistakes and fallen down
We’ll need a helping hand
The dull moon sings its lullaby
On and on we’ll go
Searching for a chance to free
The person our hearts see us be
Chorus:
Verse 3:
Now the words escape my mouth
Falling on deaf ears
What will the fates bring to us
To ensure happier years
All we want is lingering
On hope and chance and fate
For all of us are waiting here
And in time someone will say
Chorus:
Silence, no more words
