A question well served
Has Man been a victim
A/C# Cadd9
“Is silence like a fever?”
of his woman, of his father?
G D
“A voice never heard”
if he elects not to bother
A/C# Cadd9
“Or a meesage with no receiver?”
Will he suffocate their faith?
G D A/C# Cadd9

Em Am
Pray they won’t ask
Desperate to fall
D Em
Behind the stained glass
Behind the Great Wall
C D
There’s always one more mask
That seperates us all
Chorus
E A A
When there is reason
B E
Tonight I’m awake
When there is no answer
Arrive the Silent man
If there is balance
Tonight He’s awake
If they have to suffer
There lies the Silent Man
