Текст: Mighty Mighty Bosstones. A Sad Silence.

Two years and extra days, a block away he'd head to hang
Same corner, neighborhood, his friends the gang
Two years and extra days, a bigger kid would crack his eye
No real reason, explanation everyday no one knew why

The bigger kid was crazy, that made the gang afraid
When he told the gang to shut their mouths the gang obeyed
You've got to have a place to be, you need a place to hang around
No one spoke, no one moved, no one made a sound

Both his eyes would twitch, the left one was always black
His lips they never moved they stayed still with each attack
His ears were always ringing in his head he'd hear a hum
And all the kids on the corner knew what it was from

Then one day it happened, he took his daily crack
His eyes rolled up, like yesterday, he started falling back
The kids that watch this everyday now watched him hit the ground
No one spoke, no one moved, no one made a sound
And no one made a sound

Both his eyes would twitch, the left one was always black
His lips they never moved they stayed still with each attack
His ears were always ringing in his head he'd hear a hum
And all the kids on the corner knew what it was from

No one spoke, no one moved, no one made a sound
A sad silent situation, now he's not around
No one spoke, no one moved, no one made a sound
A sad silent situation, now he's not around

No one spoke, no one moved and no one made a sound
A sad silent situation, now he's not around, he's not around
No one spoke, no one moved and no one made a sound
A sad silent situation, now he's not around
