Mr. Mister - No Words To Say Lyrics






I grew up in the South in the turbulent time
Not a bad time for a white boy
The country was changing in a peculiar way
And all around me was a sound
Growing sweeter and more murderous all at once
And the people tried to hide their eyes
From the chaos and defiance that was changing them all
And the years passed and not a word was spoken
The years passed, the silence never broken

Quietly, they lead their lives
Of desperation, no words to say

There were those who know the tables would turn
Running out into the burning streets
And hoping to hear the words
Of a prophet or a sage who might come along
And straighten out the mess they had made
The injustice and cruelty by their own hands
Of the ones of another shade

Quietly, they lead their lives
Of desperation, no words to say
Silently, they turned their heads
Their eyes unopened, no words to say

Then one day there was heard a thunderous chant
The voice they feared grew louder and louder
And the day had come at last

Quietly, they lead their lives
Of desperation, no words to say
Silently, they turned their heads
Their eyes unopened, no words to say

    The early name of this song was "Silently, quietly".....

    This is probably my favorite Mr. Mister song. I was so excited when Richard Page got the rights to this album and finally released it. The album sounds so much better than the bootlegs that were circulating the internet.

    I wish it were available on vinyl though.

    I bought this album as soon as it was released, and boy, what an album. It was their absolute best, and it's such a shame how it all played out. And I would kill to see them together again. *sigh*

    A.... J....

    I totally agree. It kills me that a reunion looks rather unlikely - what I would give to see at least the 3 that made PULL perform any of this material.

    I did not see this post before, Spinalcrackerbox and I, met us in Germany since 6 years ago! just about Mr Mister. Sadly, the band never will reunited , I was talking with Pat Mastelotto last year, and he loves Mr Mister but Steve Farris doesn´t want to be into a band reunion.....sad...

    I don't think MM can write a bad song. Everything they create is unique and great~

    What a pity! :(

    Even in L.A. you can't :(

    Yes I would also love to see their concert. But in Finland??!

    Seriously, what wouldn't I give to see these guys play live one more time and perform tracks from PULL, such as this gem. One shouldn't be needy but musically, this is the holy grail for me.
