A question well served,
Em/C# Cadd9 Csus4
Is silence like a fever?
G D
A voice never heard?
Em/C# Cadd9 Csus4
Or a message with no receiver?
Em Em9 Am7 Em11/A Em Em9
Pray they won't ask behind the stained glass

G D
Has man been a victim
Em/C# Cadd9 Csus4
Of his woman, of his father?
G D
If he elects not to bother
Em/C# Cadd9 Csus4
Will he suffocate their faith?
Em Em9 Am7 Em11/A Em Em9
Desperate to fall behind the Great Wall

When there is reason, tonight I'm awake

If there is balance, tonight He's awake
E F#m A B E Eadd9 E
If they have to suffer, there lies the silent man

Sin without deceivers, a God with no believers

I could sail by on the winds of silence
Em Cadd9
And maybe they won't notice

But this time I think it'd be better if I swim
E F#m A B
When there is reason, tonight I'm awake
E F#m A B E Eadd9 E
When there's no answer, arrive the silent man

If there is balance, tonight He's awake

If they have to suffer, there lies the silent man

There lies the silent man
