Lyrics

Atmosphere (Total Version)

Walk in silence

Don't walk away, in silence

See the danger

Always danger

Endless talking

Life rebuilding

Don't walk away

Walk in silence

Don't turn away, in silence

Your confusion

My illusion

Worn like a mask of self-hate

Confronts and then dies

Don't walk away

People like you find it easy

Naked to see

Walking on air

Hunting by the rivers

Through the streets

Every corner abandoned too soon

Set down with due care

Don't walk away in silence

Don't walk away
