Song lyrics downloaded from: https://www.albumsongandlyrics.com ------------------------------------------ Richard Ashcroft - Science of silence ------------------------------------------ We are on a rock, spinning silently But Iīm safe when youīre here with me These questions Iīm asking, theyīve been haunting me I need some security, canīt you see? Her love was like a fountain rushing and pouring down The darkness is putting out the light in me Sheīs a well to be dug, sheīs a university A cosmic library - wait and see We are on a rock, spinning silently Wonīt you get close to me We are on a rock, spinning in infinity Wonīt you get close to me Is it my genes that have made me? Is it the things I took, is it the things I said Does karma rule? Well if thereīs a God well can you hear me now? I am crying out, hoping you know And in my babyīs arms I need no faith I need no words to define myself And when Iīm holding you, light rushing through I wanna make it now, safe and straight We are on a rock, spinning silently Baby get a hold of me We are on a rock, spinning in infinity Baby consoling me Oh I donīt know when the fearīs going to end I donīt know if my prayers are received - the ones I send (We are on a rock, spinning silently) I canīt live in pain and fear (We are on a rock, spinning in infinity) Oh I see so much joy and it makes me scared (We are on a rock, spinning silently) Oh I donīt know if my prayers are received, until the end (We are on a rock, spinning in infinity) Oh I guess it ainīt offet for you to pray for peace Oh baby I donīt know where Iīm going All I know is that I need you as a friend
