Lyric

Sudden Silence

Verse 1

Seen this kind of shade before

Whispers sliding ‘cross the floor

Daytime smiles, midnight talk

Chalk my name in sidewalk chalk

Didn’t chase it, let it roll

Small town drum with a borrowed soul

If they needed someone tall to frame

Guess I fit the game

Pre-Chorus

Different city, same old spin

Different face, familiar wind

Chorus

All my lines went dead one night

No red light, no last fight

Spring breeze blowing soft and slow

But the ground still cold below

Hearts don’t warm in one clean run

They stall, they start, they come undone

Verse 2

Got a clue who stirred the sound

But I won’t track it down

If she’s safe, that’s all I pray

Let the silence sway

April sun with a backdoor freeze

Warm air dancing through bare trees

Last year’s snow ain’t hanging round

Melted without a sound

Bridge

Time don’t knock, time don’t block

Just keeps ticking like a dockside clock

If she circles back my way

I won’t look away

Final Chorus

Till the sky shuts off my lane

I’ll keep riding through the rain

Spring don’t rush, it turns, it bends

Cold wind fades — and comes again
