Texty: Dixie Chicks. Taking The Long Way. Easy Silence.

When the calls and conversations
Accidents and accusations
Messages and mis-perceptions
Paralyze my mind

Buses, cars and airplanes leaving
Burnin' fumes of gasoline
And everyone is runnin'
And I come to find a refuge

In the easy silence that you make for me
It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
And the peaceful quiet you create for me
And the way you keep the world at bay for me
The way you keep the world at bay

Monkeys on the barricades
Are warning us to back away
They form commissions tryin' to find
The next one they can crucify

And anger plays on every station
Answers only make more questions
I need somethin' to believe in
Breathe in sanctuary

In the easy silence that you make for me
It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
And the peaceful quiet you create for me
And the way you keep the world at bay for me
The way you keep the world at bay

Children lose their youth too soon
Watchin' war made us immune
And I've got all the world to lose
But I just want to hold on to

The easy silence that you make for me
It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
And the peaceful quiet you create for me
And the way you keep the world at bay for me

The easy silence that you make for me
It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
And the peaceful quiet you create for me
And the way you keep the world at bay for me
The way you keep the world at bay for me
The way you keep the world at bay
