Silent Adventures: Navigating Life's Shadows with Stina Nordenstam
Lyrics
Me and Ron had the uniform on but we're not going to school
Me and Ron wore uniforms, but we skipped school.
But the other way through the concrete grey
We took a different path through the dreary city.
It was all OK it was cool
Despite the surroundings, everything seemed fine and cool.
We took turns at laying an ear at the rail
We listened for approaching trains by putting our ears to the rail.
We heard before we saw the faintest sound stead growing loud
We heard a distant sound that gradually grew louder.
We wanted nothing more
We desired nothing else but this experience.
The laws of Silence Universe
Reference to the rules or forces governing silence and the universe.
We fight with high and fast
We challenge and contend with great speed and height.
We fight with close and dangerous
We confront close and perilous situations.
With things that doesn't last
We grapple with impermanent things.
Ron and I got on alright
Ron and I were getting along well.
On the roof the speed was great
On the rooftop, the speed felt exhilarating.
We made a turn and then came the tunnel
We made a turn and entered a tunnel.
And all went dark as a grave
Inside the tunnel, everything became dark.
And the light came back and I saw the bridge
The light returned, revealing a bridge.
For a moment time stood still
Time seemed to momentarily stop.
It had started to rain, I noticed that
I realized it had started raining.
And then I turned and ran
I turned and ran away.
The laws of Silence Universe
Reference to the rules or forces governing silence and the universe.
We fight with high and fast
We challenge and contend with great speed and height.
We fight with close and dangerous
We confront close and perilous situations.
With things that doesn't last
We grapple with impermanent things.
