Song lyrics

The sons of the silent age
Stand on platforms, blank looks and no books,
Sit in back rows of city limits,
Lay in bed, coming and going on easy terms.
The sons of the silent age
Pace their rooms like a cell's dimensions,
Rise for a year or two then make war,
Search through their one inch thoughts,
Then decide it couldn't be done.

[Chorus:]
Baby, I'll never let you go,
All I see is all I know,
Let's take another way down.
(Sons of sound and sons of sound)

Baby, I'll never let you down,
I can't stand another sound,
Let's find another way in.
(Sons of sound and sons of sound)

The sons of the silent age
Listen to tracks by Sam Therapy and King Dice.
The sons of the silent age
Pick up in bars but cry only once.
The sons of the silent age
Make love only once but dream and dream,
Don't walk, just glide in and out of life,
They never die, just go to sleep one day.

[Chorus:]
Baby, I'll never let you go,
All I see is all I know,
Let's take another way down.
(Sons of sound and sons of sound)

Baby, I'll never let you down,
I can't stand another sound,
Let's find another way in.
(Sons of sound and sons of sound)
