[Verse 1]
From the damned deserted highway
To the stillness of my room
Fading shades of nighttime
In the fast declining gloom
I wakened by the howling dog
From the place that it has laid
And the hooter hollers calling all you sinners
From your bed
[Verse 2]
I gazed down at the street lamp
No longer shining bright
For the dawn has robbed it of its gleam
Stolen all its light
And the stealthy crawling sunlight
Creeps on unsuspecting lives
To waken all their troubles
Leave their peacefulness behind
[Verse 3]
Suddеnly my mind speaks
Against this enemy
But takеs the shutters from my eyes
Puts this uniform on me
It takes away my freedom
Like a falling wingless bird
Then the world shouts out its warning
And the silence it is shattered
The Silence Is Shattered was written by David McWilliams.
