Endless time is arriving in this lost and found 
What is now was always but never seemed to be 
In the breath of a heartbeat the walls tumble down 
An elusive light and sound enraptured me 
But I remain in my body 
Words fail to describe what we feel when we die inside 
God only knows what we're feeling 
when the lights grow dim 
Is there really a voice inside 
in the silent within 
Torn apart by a twister of greed lust and pride 
When I bleed it's a need to be one with you 
Why is anger so hungry and love so blind 
Why do we hurt when we cry 
Well God only knows what we're dreaming 
in our ultimate sin 
Do we really hide anything 
in the silent within 
Silent within, within 
Ohh hide in your darkness 
And I'm dreaming today 
Only for a moment would you hear 
Oh slow me down 
Run away 
God only knows and He ain't talkin' 
In the sound and the light and the life 
There's no end to the bottom when we start to fall, 
There's no top to the high when we want to climb 
And this heart is a prison bound by chains of gold 
Wherein lies the keys 
God only knows how we're falling 
While reaching for Him 
In this vacuum of time and space 
in the silent within 
God only knows 
within 
It's a drop from the ocean 
A star from the sky 
A grain of sand from the earth 
A tear from an eye 
When the light is before us 
And shines in our life 
In the silent within 
God only knows
