Lyrics : Walker, Music : Steer/Amott)
A play on words, or words on play,

Last chapter, verse in the final act,
Words well scripted, each sentence choking,
Inaudible gay, blanket which suffocates,
Manourished, you starve.

As you eat another¹s words,
(Lead - Amott)
Silence has a definition,

Vocabulary of muted diction,
Precise thought to miscomprehend,
Ambiguity in high resolution,
Articulate expletive fiction,
Open to misinterpretation-so precise,
A vocabulary of muted diction,

(Silence has a definition,
Condensed meaning, making no sense,
Articulate, expletive.)
Open mouth the lines,
In stressed expression, understand the silence,
The piercing calm, sour music to your ears,
As you regurgitate another¹s words,
In their shallowness you drown.


(Lead - Amott)
A play on words, making no sense.


(Lead - Steer)
Which makes nonsenseWhich makes no sense
