LYRICS

Silent teacher hold my hand
And lead me to the promised land
Silent Teacher, please define
This ordinary life won't bring me to find it
Me to find it

I want to live with my head in the clouds
I want to stumble when I walk to find light
Can you tell me which way to go?
So I can bury him in all of my mind

Silent teacher - promise me

Silent teacher - promise me
This ordinary life won't bring me to find it
Me to find it

I want to live with my head in the clouds
I want to stumble when I walk to find light
Can you tell me which way to go?
So I can bury him in all of my mind

Can we save everyone?
Or do we wait until the damage is done?
Can we save everyone?
Or do we wait until the damage is done?

I want to live with my head in the clouds
I want to stumble when I walk to find light
Can you tell me which way to go?
So I can bury him in all of my mind
I want to live with my head in the clouds
I want to stumble when I walk to find light
And can you tell me which way to go?
So I can bury him in all of my mind

Can we save everyone?
Or do we wait until the damage is done?
Can we save everyone?
Or do we wait until the damage is done?
