My Secret Is My Silence

If you never leave the highlands
Like you're drowning under rain
And your sadness tastes like whiskey
And my body breathes the same

And i'll drain my wisdom empty
Just to feel that space again

But you know nothing is as silent
And my secret is my silence
My secret is my silence
And my silence is in vain

I'm sick of living in these buildings
That were built in blood and rain
But from the warm side of the window
The views always look the same

But your face it held the stories
Full of dreams it can't contain

But you know nothing is as silent
And my secret is my silence
My secret is my silence
And my silence is in vain

But you know nothing is as silent
And my secret is my silence
Any my secret is my silence
And my silence is in vain

And you held on to a country
From the kailyard to the grave
And you spoke in quickly written verses
Hidden in your gaelic name

To approach land without a harbour
To find your way home
And you approach land without a harbour
And find your way home

And you approach land without a harbour
And find your way home
And you approach land without a harbour
And find your way home
And you approach land without a harbour
And find your way home
And you approach land without a harbour
And find your way home
By a nicotine flame

But you know nothing is as silent
And my secret is my silence
Any my secret is my silence
And my silence is in vain
