Alter Bridge – Fable of the Silent Son Lyrics
Fable of the Silent Son Lyrics By Alter Bridge
[Intro]
Lost where we can’t escape
Blind to our own decay
Lamenting when we can’t let go
Until we heal, we die alone
We hope that it’s not too late
I used to lie awake
And sing this song
Fear is a hollow place
A dark beyond
The coldest season that
I’ve ever known
But it’s over now
I’ve learned from my mistakes
Times have changed
And I have changed
It’s hard to recognize thе person that I was
But a wasted life is still worth saving
I was too scarеd to fight
Forgiveness wouldn’t come
But it’s over now
I’ve learned from my mistakes
But it’s over now
I’ve learned from my mistakes
Times have changed
[Verse 1]
Those were the darkest days
I never will return
This I confess so you may learn
Convey the truth, the pain
So you won’t have to hurt
Please never second guess these words
[Chorus]
Like a phoenix rising from the dust
I’ve come to lift you up
Like a new day dawning from above in turn
So you may learn
A lesson from the things I’ve done
A fable of the silent son
[Verse 2]
And buried way below
We have our deep regrets
With waves of anger to respect
We face our demons with intentions to protect
Our future angels for what’s next
[Chorus]
Like a phoenix rising from the dust
I’ve come to lift you up
Like a new day dawning from above in turn
So you may learn
A lesson from the things I’ve done
[Bridge]
A fable of the silent son
A warning of the things to come
Foreshadowing the end for some
Who dare and lose it all
A fable of the silent son
A warning of the things to come
Forgive me for the things I’ve done
I could have lost it all
[Guitar solo]
[Verse 3]
I used to lie awake
And sing this song
Fear is the hollow place
A dark beyond
The coldest season that
I’ve ever known
But it’s over now
I’ve learned from my mistakes
But it’s over now
I’ve learned from my mistakes
[Chorus]
Like a phoenix rising from the dust
I’ve come to lift you up
Like a new day dawning from above in turn
So you may learn
A lesson from the things I’ve done
A fable of the silent son
A fable of the silent son
A fable of the silent son
