Code of Silence (Live at Madison Square Garden, New York, NY - June 2000)
There's a code of silence that we don't dare speak
There's a wall between us and the river's so deep
We keep pretending that there's nothing wrong
But there's a code of silence and it can't go on
Is the truth so elusive, so elusive you see?
That it ain't enough baby
To bridge the distance between you and me
There's a list of grievance 100 miles long
There's a code of silence and it can't go on
Well you walk with your eyes open
But your lips they remain sealed
While the promises we made are broken
Beneath the truth we fear to reveal
Now I need to know now darlin'
I need to know what's goin' on so c'mon
Well you walk with your eyes open
But your lips they remain sealed
While the promises we made are broken
Beneath the truth we fear to reveal
Now I need to know now darlin'
I need to know what's goin' on
So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
There's a code of silence that we don't dare speak
There's a wall between us and the river's deep
We keep pretending that there's nothing wrong
There's a code of silence
And it can't go on (can't go on) can't go on
And it can't go on, and it can't go on
And it can't go on, and it can't go on
And it can't go on, and it can't go on
And it can't go on, and it can't go on
There's a wall between us and the river's so deep
We keep pretending that there's nothing wrong
But there's a code of silence and it can't go on
Is the truth so elusive, so elusive you see?
That it ain't enough baby
To bridge the distance between you and me
There's a list of grievance 100 miles long
There's a code of silence and it can't go on
Well you walk with your eyes open
But your lips they remain sealed
While the promises we made are broken
Beneath the truth we fear to reveal
Now I need to know now darlin'
I need to know what's goin' on so c'mon
Well you walk with your eyes open
But your lips they remain sealed
While the promises we made are broken
Beneath the truth we fear to reveal
Now I need to know now darlin'
I need to know what's goin' on
So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
There's a code of silence that we don't dare speak
There's a wall between us and the river's deep
We keep pretending that there's nothing wrong
There's a code of silence
And it can't go on (can't go on) can't go on
And it can't go on, and it can't go on
And it can't go on, and it can't go on
And it can't go on, and it can't go on
And it can't go on, and it can't go on
