LYRICS

You turn around, the noise outside has died away.
Don’t close your eyes, embrace the calm.
It all makes sense, the clearing appears in front of you.
Don’t try too hard, just let it go.

It’s too late, too late to leave.
You should stay but you don’t know if you can.

The quiet place you tried to avoid has found you
and in this silence the thought enters your head.
That you never had anything to say to anyone
and the lump in your throat won’t speak.

It’s too late, too late to leave.
You should stay but you don’t know if you can.

Nothing, nothing. Where’s the sound? What’s left now?

It’s too late, too late to stay.
You should leave but you don’t know if you can.
Voiceless, soundless, restless.
