Silent Alarm - Fossil Collective

How many times

Will the earth spin around?

Most spend their lives

With their heads in the ground

Walking without ever taking a step

Speaking without ever making sound

Gold turns to rust as the leaves fall down

Definite silence, the saddest sound

I was a lake that reflected the stars

You were the silent alarm

Going off

Give me a sign

Turn on the warning light

And I’ll carry on my life

Without always turning around

When we arrive

We’ll be our own design

And you’ll be the morning light

How many times will the Earth spin around

We spend our lives with our heads in the ground

Walking without ever taking a step

Speaking without making sound

Give me a sign

Turn on the warning lights

I’ll carry on my life

Without always turning around

When we rise

We’ll be our own design

And you’ll be the morning light…

You’re the world outside

Tonight
