Chris Pureka - Silo Song Lyrics
Maybe you learned it from your familymix in a little of the old midwestit seems someone out there built a legacyon keeping everything tight under wrapsand all the secrets in the silosyou won't even whisper them to the prairie windand now we're talking on the telephoneskimming the surface of this oceanjust skimming the surface of this oceanyou know you're drowning mein all you're not sayingswept under the rug for so long, oh darlingdon't it get lonely when you're the only one who knows?all the over-encrypted poetryunintelligible tales of the truthit was all dripping with mysteryenough to keep me there long overdueso honey, honey, drop the metaphorhoney, honey, won't you come clean because...well I don't claim to be so forthrightit's not my strongpointbut your attempts are illusoryand you don't even know it, you don't even know itso maybe you learned it from your familymaybe that's just your best excuseyou could use some new york cityyou could use your own talk show hostbecause I am drowning in allthat you're not sayingI want to shake your shouldersI want to rip down the curtainsoh, 'cause all I rememberare these opaque conversationswhen so much of the meaningwas just lost in the translation...it's a tale so ordinarythere you were with your pretty mouth closedbut darling you should have told me the endinglong before you did
