There's a code of silence that we don't dare speak |
|
There's a wall between us and the river's deep |
|
We keep pretending that there's nothing wrong |
|
But there's a code of silence and it can't go on |
|
Is the truth so elusive, so elusive you see |
|
that it ain't enough baby |
|
To bridge the distance between you and me |
|
There's a list of grievance 100 miles long |
|
There's a code of silence and it can't go on |
|
Well you walk with your eyes open |
|
But your lips they remain sealed |
|
While the promises we made are broken |
|
Beneath the truth we fear to reveal |
|
Now I need to know now darlin' |
|
I need to know what's goin' on so c'mon |
|
Well you walk with your eyes open |
|
But your lips they remain sealed |
|
While the promises we made are broken |
|
Beneath the truth we fear to reveal |
|
Now I need to know now darlin' |
|
I need to know what's goin' on so c'mon |
|
There's a code of silence that we don't dare speak |
|

We keep pretending that there's nothing wrong |
