Code of Silence

I hear a language you don't speak, hidden between phrases of your stories,
from all the place that you travelled to,
something buried long ago comes through.

Code of silence, someone wove a spell.
Many voices sang but none would tell.
Now I know you'd vanish if you could.
But I will wait until I understand.
And I will witness what you reveal.


Outside, the corn rustles softly, sunflowers tilt toward the comin' rain.
Of all your journeys, tell me which ones did you learn from?
And which ones were sweet opium for your pain?

Code of silence, someone cast a spell.
Many voices sang but none would tell.
Now I wonder if you'll disappear.
But I will wait until I understand.
And I will witness what you reveal.


"Diamond in the desert", well I suppose.
But you can't hide behind a mask of prose
even if the vehicle that you came here in
doesn't use a runway or the deep deep ocean.

Code of silence, someone spoke a spell.
Many voices sang but none would tell.
Now I know that you could leave if you wanted to.
Still, I will wait until I understand.
And I will witness what you reveal.


Prisoner of war, I declare it's over now.
You should wear a metal for your loyalty.
The load you carried for so many miles,
You can put it down now. You are free.

Code of silence, someone broke the spell.
Many voices sang but only one could tell.
Now I know you'll never desert me.
And I will wait until you understand.
And will reveal just what I can.


I hear a language you don't speak
hidden between phrases of your stories,
from all the places that you travelled to,
something buried long ago comes through.
