Halls of Stone

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]

Cold morning breaks across the moor

I count the hours I let disappear

My father's voice still rings inside these walls

Rust on the gate

The garden overgrown

[Pre-Chorus]

Nobody calls my name

Nobody knocks anymore

I keep the lamp alive

[Chorus]

The silence within is louder than the storm

The silence within is where I learned to mourn

I built these halls of stone

I built them all alone

The silence within

[Post-Chorus]

Oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

[Verse 2]

My sister writes from somewhere by the sea

Her letters fade like everything she said

I trace the ink and wonder who I've been

The kettle screams

Then quiet settles in

[Pre-Chorus]

Nobody calls my name

Nobody knocks anymore

I keep the lamp alive

[Chorus]

The silence within is louder than the storm

The silence within is where I learned to mourn

I built these halls of stone

I built them all alone

The silence within

[Post-Chorus]

Oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

[Bridge]

I wanted noise I wanted proof

I wanted someone in the room

I wanted war I wanted truth

I wanted you

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

The silence within is louder than the storm

The silence within is where I learned to mourn

I built these halls of stone

I built them all alone

The silence within

[Post-Chorus]

Oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh

The silence within
