Sometimes there’s nothing to say
But the desire to say something is strong
The need to create rises up inside
Against the fear that all is lost
Then I’ll just write whatever I find
In the belief inspiration will come

Sometimes there’s nothing to say
I have no wisdom to give
And despite the need for an answer
The need for some hope
All I can offer is “I do not know”
But I’m still here by your side

Sometimes there’s nothing to say
And that needs to be known
The words are gone and the silence come
For it’s silence we need
It’s silence we fear
Because the silence has plenty to say
