Somos analfabetos do silêncio e esse é um dos motivos porque não sabemos viver na paz.
(...)
Pense-se em como o silêncio dá a ver o património de uma amizade. E a pergunta é: como percebemos que dois desconhecidos são amigos? Pela forma como conversam? Certamente. Pelo modo como se riem? Claro que sim. Mas ainda mais porque nitidamente acolhem o silêncio um do outro. Entre conhecidos o silêncio é um embaraço, sentimos imediatamente a necessidade de fazer conversa, de ocupar o espaço em branco da comunicação. Com os amigos o silêncio nada tem de embaraçoso. O silêncio é um vínculo que une.
This is no time for
Celebration
this is no time for Shaking Heads
This is no time for Backslapping
this is no time for Marching Bands
This
is no time for Optimism
this is no time for Endless Thought
This is no time for my country Right or Wrong
remember what that brought
There
is no time
there is no time
There is no time
there is no time
This
is no time for Congratulations
this is no time to Turn Your Back
This is no time for Circumlocution
this is no time for Learned Speech
This
is no time to Count Your Blessings
this is no time for Private Gain
This is no time to Put Up or Shut Up
it won't no time to come back this way again
There
is no time
there is no time
There is no time
there is no time
This
is no time to Swallow Anger
this is no time to Ignore Hate
This is no time to be Acting Frivolous
because the time is getting late
This
is no time for Private Vendettas
this is no time to not know who you are
Self knowledge is a dangerous thing
the freedom of who you are
This
is no time to Ignore Warnings
this is no time to Clear the Plate
Let's not be sorry after the fact
and let the past become out fate
There
is no time
there is no time
There is no time
there is no time
This
is no time to turn away and drink
or smoke some vials of crack
This is a time to gather force
and take dead aim and Attack
This
is no time for Celebration
this is no time for Saluting Flags
This is no time for Inner Searchings
the future is at head
This
is no time for Phony Rhetoric
this is no time for Political Speech
This is a time for Action
because the future's Within Reach
This
is the time
this is the time
This is the time
because there is no time
There
is no time
there is no time
There is no time
there is no time
