[Verse 1]
I tell you when to Speak
To get up from your seat
You're wearing the letter, abettor
See what you've done to me

I know there's nothing left to be
I know there is no Use
There is no forever and ever
Can't fix what once was whole...

[Bridge]
It used to follow me wherever..
(Like vines that grew...)
I'd run to hold myself together..
(Like vines that grew...)

[Chorus]
Silent So Long
After The Wait
After I'm On My Own
I illuminate...

[Verse 2]
Below the strong are weak
What talked has turned to meat
I let it get redder and redder
What tore inside of me
Alone I am my enemy
Alone I see the truth
I know that together or severed
I'll dig out from the hole

[Bridge]
It used to follow me wherever..
(Like vines that grew...)
I'd run to hold myself together..
(Like vines that grew...)

[Chorus]
Silent So Long
After The Wait
After I'm On My Own
I illuminate...

…

“Silent So Long...”
