Verse 2 (Guitar quieter, switching L/R in stereo):
Silence is the enemy
That keeps us from the things we need
It ages but it never grows
-N/C-
So quiet that we start to bleed
(Guitar comes in strong, full stereo)
Lets shake it off and let it go
Forgetting what we think we know
We’ll make it all a memory
We’re taking back control
