Requiem

[Verse 1] Silence killed a mockingbird With no one left to hear With not one eye set on her She ceases to sing And if a tree falls and no one's there to hear it Does it truly make a sound? Won't you cup your hands beneath it? As she tumbles to the ground [Chorus] Sing A requiem Sing A requiem Sing A requiem Sing A requiem [Verse 2] Feathers floating on downstream On the screaming rush of tide And if silence killed a mockingbird There's no body left to hide Ooh, how I miss her warble now That gentle lifting swell Now she only sings her requiem In the silence that she dwells [Chorus] Sing A requiem Sing A requiem Sing A requiem Sing A requiem [Verse 3] My heart cries for her colour And those dark all-seein' eyes And if silence killed a mockingbird There's no morning surprise And the clouds gather confused Now she never writes the signs But the planes go on unfazed And burn the sky with their lines [Chorus] Sing A requiem Sing A requiem Sing A requiem Sing A requiem [Chorus] Sing A requiem Sing A requiem Sing A requiem Sing A requiem
