Moment's Silence (Common Tongue)

Lyrics

When stunted hand earns place with man by mere monstrosity
 Alarms are struck and shore is shock by sheer atrocity
 A cure I know that soothes the soul, does so impossibly
 A moment's silence when my baby puts the mouth on
 Me and my babe relax and catch the manic rhapsody
 All reason flown as God looks on in abject apathy
 A squall and all of me is a prayer in perfect piety
 A moment's silence when my baby puts the mouth on me
 ♪
 When the meaning's gone, there is clarity
 And the reason comes on the common tongue of your loving me
 And it's easy done, our little remedy
 And the reason comes on the common tongue of your loving me
 What yields the need for those who lead us, oh, so morally?
 ♪
 Those that would view the same we do through their deformity
 Who view the deed as power's creed, as pure authority?
 This moment's silence when my baby puts the mouth on me
 Since it all begun to it's reckoning
 There the reason comes on the common tongue of your loving me
 Be thankful some know it lovingly
 There the reason comes in the common tongue of your loving me, whoo!
 ♪
 Like a heathen clung to the homily
 Let the reason come on the common tongue of your loving me
 So summon on the pearl rosary
 Let the reason come on the common tongue of your loving me
