I sit in my silence
But my mind isn't quiet
I hear the sound of nothing
And everything at the same time
Of childhood memories
Of things I have forgotten
The whole world's calamities
Of everything and nothing
The hum of the street lights
As the whole city sleeps
In the darkness of the night
I can hear my own heart beat
I sit in my silence
But my mind isn't quiet
I hear the sound of nothing
And everything at the same time
I drift to the future
I wander to the past
Trying to convince myself
That this too shall pass
