A Sad Silence Lyrics

    Two years and extra days, a block away he'd head to hang
    Same corner, neighborhood, his friends, the gang
    Two years and extra days, a bigger kid would crack his eye
    No real reason, explanation and everyday no one knew why
    The bigger kid was crazy, that made the gang afraid
    When he told the gang to shut their mouths, the gang obeyed
    You've got to have a place to be, you need a place to hang around
    No one spoke, no one moved, no one made a sound
    Both his eyes would twitch
    The left one was always black
    His lips they never moved
    They stayed still with each attack
    His ears were always ringing,
    In his head he'd hear a hum
    And all the kids on the corner
    Knew what it was from
    Well then one day it happened, he took his daily crack
    His eyes rolled up, like yesterday, he started falling back
    The kids that watch this everyday, now watched him hit the ground
    No one spoke, no one moved, no one made a sound
    And no one made a sound
    Both his eyes would twitch
    The left one was always black
    His lips they never moved
    They stayed still with each
    Attack his ears were always ringing,
    In his head he'd hear a hum
    And all the kids on the corner
    Knew what it was from
    No one spoke, no one moved, no one made a sound
    A sad silent situation, now he's not around
    No one spoke, no one moved, no one made a sound
    A sad silent situation, now he's not around
    Well no one spoke and no one moved and no one made a sound
    A sad silent situation he's not a-he's not around
    Noone spoke noone moved he's not around
    A sad silent situation now he's not around
