And old lady came to me With a golden face and golden teeth A crinkled eye and a furrowed brow Oh the things she said and how She taught me of things I’d never seen She told me of you and me She told me of the secrets The secretes that we’d keep
(CHORUS) Oh the sound The silence we buried underground Oh the deeds The secrets that we’d keep
Her voice it cracked Her voice it croaked She said our lives would be no joke With a piercing eye she stared through you Said I’d shake the earth you stood Right through
(CHORUS 2) Your bones The silence we buried underground Oh the deeds The secrets that we’d keep (Repeat)
(BRIDGE) The hole that we made is swallowing the ocean The hole that we made is swallowing the sea The hole that we made is swelling before us The hole that we made is just big enough for me (Repeat)
