When Silence Is The Only Sound - The Infamous Stringdusters

Verse 1

He sits in the dark

Double scotch in his hand

Considering why

It didn’t turn out like he planed

Stuck at work late at night

She’s gone again before the light

She blames the bills

She just won’t tell him how she feels

Chorus

Unconscious of uncommon ground

The walls of pride can’t be knocked down

When silence is the only sound

(solo)

Verse 2

He’ll try to tempt her with his smile

But giving in is not her style

His pain is worse with time

Why can’t he say what’s on his mind

Comfort finds a face

Another man to take his place

Will she go down that road

Saddest story ever told

Chorus

Unconscious of uncommon ground

The walls of pride can’t be knocked down

When silence is the only sound

(solos)

Chorus

Unconscious of uncommon ground

Well.

The walls of pride can’t be knocked down

When silence is the only sound
