Death of Silence

Silence used to be my partner Silence used to be my friend Silence was the ever-after Silent to the bitter end Silent were the words I studied Absence its only friend Silence was taken for granted Never will I know it again People observe a moment's silence Remembering the life of friends I used to try to record the silence Comparing all the different ends Silence was my sparring partner Silence my only friend Never again will I experience silence I'm haunted by the death of that friend The death of that friend
