Islands of Silence

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Screens glow cold in every palm
Empty eyes in crowded rooms
We built our walls so high
Now nobody hears the boom
Neighbors pass like strangers
Locked doors and silent halls
Every head bent down low
We answer no one's calls
[Pre-Chorus]
Who turned the lights out
Who let the quiet win
We traded flesh for filters
And let the bridges thin
[Chorus]
We're drifting apart in the glow
Every soul on its own island
Hold on hold on we're sinking slow
A world we made with our own hands
[Drop]
Break the silence break the glass
Reach a hand before the last
Break the silence break the glass
Before the world goes dark
[Verse 2]
Used to share the weight around
Now we carry it alone
Every screen a smaller cage
Every voice a distant tone
The streetlights hum for no one
The park bench gathers rust
We forgot how to say hello
We lost the will to trust
[Pre-Chorus]
Who turned the lights out
Who let the quiet win
We traded flesh for filters
And let the bridges thin
[Chorus]
We're drifting apart in the glow
Every soul on its own island
Hold on hold on we're sinking slow
A world we made with our own hands
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
One by one we fade away
Like embers gone to gray
Show your face show your pain
We only fall when we refrain
[Chorus]
We're drifting apart in the glow
Every soul on its own island
Hold on hold on we're sinking slow
A world we made with our own hands
[Outro]
Reach out reach out
Before the last light dies
Reach out reach out
Before we lose the skies
