Peter Silberman
Gone Beyond
[Verse 1]

I'm listening for your silence,
But God, there's so much noise.
And now I feel I've found you.
You're partially destroyed.

I echo in your absence;
Voiceless as a swan.
I want you to hear what I hear:
The sound that I found to replace you while you were gone.

[Chorus 1]

Gone beyond, gone beyond, gone beyond, gone beyond. [x2]

[Verse 2]

With folded legs, you'll hold me
And smile and call me "mine".
You'll worry nothing's happening;
You're happening all the time.

So shaken by these changes,
But trying to waltz alone.
I want you to hear what I hear:
A temple ticking away - beaten, but gone.

[Chorus 2]

Gone beyond, gone beyond, gone beyond, gone beyond. [x4]

Gone beyond, gone beyond...

[Bridge]

Ooo...

Gone beyond [x7]

[Outro]

Gone beyond.
