• A Silence Song (live from "Halo")

So much silence
Stretching above me
Around me too
Has it deafened me?
Has it closed my ears?
Has the silence itself
Brought about this rapture
Between silence and sound
Between the cry and the cull?
If man raises one voice –
I'll raise two then
One for loss
One for losing
One for death
And one for birth
He may hang bloodytorn
On this tree of moss
Though my grimace
Will cut my grin
I'll rise triumphant
I'll rise triumphing
You won't catch me

I fly unseen
Through the wind
Of the worlds
Missiles cut space
Spearing the starlight
Masking the moon
Wide of the march

Give me two reasons to stay here
Lostlight
Lostlove
Smudge the tracks
And smother the traces
Of the fires
Of your fear

Near the
Under the
Beside the
Beyond the
Flowers
Then further still
The children lie
In silent space
The wind shivers through
Their cornburnt hair

Silence immaculate
If they move
From silence to sound
Will the world shudder
Will my heart stop
In a cave
In a maze
The spring slides
Through my sadness
And my winter

The stars have frozen into space
The stars have molten into space

The children wait
Flowers around
Burnish their hair
With crimson gold
And heart-red rose
If I move
Then I shall stop

I'll take a knife to your heart
I'll take a knife to your heart
I'll take a knife to your heart

And London Bridge no longer remains
Christ's face refracted through the sky
Then breaks up into
Different shapes
