Silent Saint from Man Mountain by Great Went

Sitting in this frozen box of ice at the north pole
To them it was just an experiment, I never knew it would cost my soul
To the military, I was their very best, with information I could not share
Now they're trying to crack my code and it's more than I can bear

I'm a silent saint
I'm a saint
I'm a silent saint
I'm a saint

Now I've sailed the seven seas, except for Bengal
And I've danced with a Russian queen at a Tel Aviv ball
The arctic cold is moving in, my consciousness is fading fast
And if they don't come for me soon, this Leslie County boy won't last

Still I'm a silent saint
I'm a saint
I'm a silent saint
I'm a saint

Kentucky rolls over the bluegrass, fades into my mind
The mandolins play louder and I think I'm going blind
Oh, Hyden's ringing in my ears and the last words my father said,
He said the mines are a slow suicide, oh and now the coal mine is dead

The helicopter flies me back to my kith and kin
And I know my Ruth will be waiting with open arms to welcome me in

Oh but I'm a silent saint
I'm a saint
I'm a silent saint
I'm a silent saint
