Silent Spring

It surprised me not to hear them sing

As I woke up on this blue morning

I had been used to being awoken by grasshoppers

But on this fateful day my clock was all I heard

How can we dance when we're stuck in a silent spring

How are we supposed to feel when everything's so still

How can we dance when we're stuck in a silent spring

I wonder if we'll be able to hear wings in the wind

Out my window I find myself imagining

How in the past these hills were murmuring

And as I recall this constant chatter

I pray for tomorrow to be louder

How can we dance when we're stuck in a silent spring

How are we supposed to feel when everything's so still

How can we dance when we're stuck in a silent spring

I wonder if we'll be able to hear wings in the wind
