Lyrics of Deafening Silence by Serj Tankian

intro

I know who you are
I know who you are not
I know who you are
I, I know who you are not

chorus

The silence is deafening to my ears
How could the obvious be ignored?
The silence is threatening when she appears
The ceremony is performed

chorus

I'm here to paint you with my tears
Decried my spirit over my fears
I can't walk away from all the years
Serene inside, she disappears

verse

Ends of my mind, my thoughts trembling
The hands of time, time always meddling

chorus

The silence is deafening to my ears
How could the obvious be ignored?
The silence is threatening when she appears
The ceremony is performed

chorus

I'm here to paint you with my tears
Decried my spirit over my fears
I can't walk away from all the years
Serene inside, she disappears

verse

Nightlights are for children, mornings for adults
Not in carrying equinox
The hands of my mind, my thoughts trembling
The hands of time, time always meddling
Silence is deafening to my ears
How could the obvious be ignored?
The silence is threatening when she appears
The ceremony will always be performed

pre-chorus

The silence is deafening to my ears
Seized by the impressions of passers in the night

chorus

I'm here to paint you with my tears
Decried my spirit over my fears
I can't walk away from all the years
Serene inside, she disappears

chorus

I'm here to paint you with my tears
Decried my spirit over my fears
I can't walk away from all the years
Serene inside, she reappears

outro

I know who you are.
Writer(s): Serj Tankian
