I wanna stand up, take a bow
Sit down and work it out
I'm the last person in this world
Who wants to see you hurt
Is this the interval, or the end
If we don't talk we can't reconcile
What we really need
What we know is right

I can't stand the silence
I can't stand the silence
Anymore
I can't stand the silence
I can't stand the silence
That we're going through

We gotta work this out
Before it goes too far
We gotta work this out
Until many have taken the fall
We have to know what we're fighting for
We gotta work this out

If you're searching for reasons
I follow the signs
Or keep running in my direction
I will run at a time
I know it's not easy
But we've come this far
Forgiveness is a revelation
Let me love you now from where we are

I can't stand the silence
I can't stand the silence
That we're going through

We gotta work this out
Before it goes too far
We gotta work this out
Until many have taken the fall
We have to know what we're fighting for
We gotta work this out

Oh-oh-oh help me work this out
Oh-oh-oh help me work this out
Oh-oh-oh help me work this out
Oh-oh-oh

I can't stand the silence
I can't stand the silence
Anymore
