We had a power failure earlier tonight...

The silence, do you hear it? No TV, no refrigerator humming
It's the quiet that we miss most
With computers, cellphones, cars, hooters, kids
It's the noise, it's the noise

Contributing to the stress of Life?
All this noise
I'm sure. Silence, no noise, no lights, no buzz
Wow, this is nice

This is "normal", but we don't know it
that's the farmers secret, the silence
No noise, no ringing, just extremely loud quiet
If quiet can be loud

Yup, it's the quiet we miss most
Stress, anger, fear, all related to noise
Do you doubt me? Try it
try and find the quiet

No noise, no beep, blip, bump
relaxing, quiet, peace
No anger, no fear, no stress
Its the noise!!!
