Crystal Silence

​(Intro)

(Sound of heavy snow crunching under boots, then stopping)

(A single, high-pitched bell tone that echoes)

​(Verse 1)

The sky is heavy, the air is still

Frost is biting at the window sill

White on white, a world so clean

The quietest place I’ve ever been

No cars on the road, no birds in the sky

Just the pale winter clouds floating by.

​(Chorus)

Crystal silence, falling down

A velvet curtain over the town

Everything’s hidden, everything’s lost

Under the beauty of the silver frost

Stay in the stillness, don't make a sound

Heaven is touching the frozen ground.

​(Bridge - Softly spoken)

"Have you ever noticed...

how the snow absorbs the noise?

It’s like the universe

put on a pair of headphones."

​(Verse 2)

The stars are hiding behind the veil

The moonlight is dim, the stars are pale

I’m breathing in the scent of the pine

Watching the frost draw a jagged line

Safe in the bubble of my own little room

Watching the winter lilies bloom.

​(Outro)

(The sound of a heater humming softly)

(The melody slowly dissolves into white noise)

Pure white...

Deep sleep...

Crystal silence...

Now
