Silent thunderstorm

[Verse 1]
Crystalline hush
Hangs over rooftops
Every breath
A little ghost in the air
Ready to shatter
Into sharp little echoes
Into dust from the pillars
We used to compare

[Pre-Chorus]
Feels like a bow
Drawn back in the heavens
Wintry and clear
Like glass in my lungs
All of this stillness
Trembling in static
Holding its tongue

[Chorus]
Silent thunderstorm
Breaks in my bones
Snow like a shroud
Over names I don’t know
Fatherly hands
Covering eyes in the glow
I hear the crying
But nothing shows

[Verse 2]
Tear in the frost
Hides in a window
Frozen mid-fall
In a jagged white frame
Gritting and grind
Sleep under fences
Under these drifts
That all look the same

[Pre-Chorus]
Up in the rafters
Something is cracking
Ceilings remember
Every unspoken war
Clear as the night
Transparent and watching
Down to the core

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
[whispered vocals]
Midnight arrives
With its thunder on mute
Lightning in glass
Running under my boot
Every soft footprint
Bruises the ground
Every quiet
Is painfully loud

[Chorus]
