Silent Alarm

Genre: Rock

Lyrics

I could tell you anything I wanted
I could tell you what you want to hear
But I’m not gonna talk in circles
In lines I’m certain lead back here

There was a time I might’ve tried some subtle charm,

But, with you it’s never enough
‘Til you can go and get tough
All the while I’m setting off
My silent alarm

You could tell me what would make you happy
I could listen from my lazy chair,
But you know love’s just a word it’s wortheless
Beneath this surface state of fear

There was a time I would’ve took you in my arms

With you it’s never enough
‘Til you can go and get tough
All the while I’m setting off
My silent alarm

When you told me we would last forever
All you need is me to keep you warm
You said hush, not a word it’s perfect
The calm that lurks before the storm

There was a time I could’ve never done you harm

With you it’s never enough
Until the gloves have come off
When all the buttons are pushed
And you can go and get tough
All the while I’m setting off
My silent alarm
