Sound Barrier Songtext
von Paddy Casey

Are you listening?
Can you hear them?
In the silence, Lord
Can you hear them?
Are you listening?
Can you hear them?
In the silence, Lord
Can you hear them?

It′s just a sound that was created
In a place that's been sedated
In a life that′s been frustrated
In a need that's left unsated
It's a scream that has been stifled
Someone′s life that has been rifled
Not of the few but of the multitude
Born hard and raised in a sensitude


Are you listening?
Can you hear them?
In the silence, Lord
Can you hear them?

It′s a silent sound of anger
It's a silent sound of rage
It′s the spirit's cry for freedom
From their story in a cage
Where so much is left unspoken
And by that very same token
Hearts and backs are broken
′Cause so much is left unspoken

Are you listening?
Can you hear them?
In the silence, Lord
Can you hear them?

What would make him do it?
Has he no way to see through it?
Through the sound that's been created
In a life that′s been frustrated


Are you listening?
Can you hear them?
In the silence, Lord
Can you hear them?

Are you listening?
Can you hear them?
In the silence, Lord
Can you hear them?
