lyrics

The Silencer

I am the silencer
I am the pale moonlighter
I am a last lost soul
Are you with me tonight?

I am the silencer
The whisperer of lightning
A crawling king snake
In the empire of mud

I am the silencer
I am the short wave rider
The Flying Dutchman
With the 1000 eyes wide shut

The handkerchiefs are wet
Dancehall days are over
So what’s left, when the curtain falls
And chaos is the number of all order

I am the silencer
The whisperer of lightning
A crawling king snake
In the empire of mud

Black metal rain falls
Crispy on my forehead
Like a million little knifes

The moon rolls like an opium ball
In the Central Station hall
A sonic boom of Elvis just arrives

And I’m the silencer
I am the pale moonlighter
I am a last lost soul
Are you with me tonight?

The handkerchiefs are wet
Dancehall days are over
So what’s left, when the curtain falls
And chaos is the number of all order
