Venn Smyth - Silver Lining Lyrics

They tell us stories that we ought to believe
But find it hard to see truth for the trees
They're farming fiction faster than the leaves
The roots dig in, divide us, after all these years

But get my coffee cup to go
Onwards, onwards with the show
Hey I don't know what I don't know
But I, I'll keep my eyes open and hoping for the

Silver lining
Silver lining
Silver lining
That little shining light

We share the stories that we want to hear
Oh mirror, mirror you reflect me so clear
Ignore the truth if it is giving you the fear
Our roots dig in, divide us, after all these years

But get my verses here to go
Onwards, onwards with the show
Hey I don't know what I don't know
But I, I'll keep my eyes open and hoping for the

Silver lining
Silver lining
Silver lining
Silver lining

Silver lining
Silver lining
Silver lining
That little shining light

Keep your eyes open and hoping for the
The sky to not cave in, holding onto

Silver lining
Silver lining
Silver lining
Silver lining

Silver lining
Silver lining
Silver lining
That little shining light
