"Easy Silence"

When the calls and conversations
Accidents and accusations
Messages and misperceptions
Paralyze my mind
Busses, cars, and airplanes leaving
Buring fumes of gasoline
And everyone is running
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 trying to find
The next one they can crucify
And anger plays on every station
Answers only make more questions
I need something 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
Watching 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...
I remember when Matt and I were getting serious, along with all my other insecurities, I kinda wondered how we would not get bored of each other by the time we wanted to get married. Wouldn't we run out of things to talk about? When you first start dating you have so much to talk about while you're getting to know each other and I really thought that it would be so scary once you got past that point... Now I know that getting past that point is amazing.
I really like this song because the chorus reflects just how I feel. It's typical Dixie Chicks to put politics in a love song but for the most part, the song is pretty bang on!
