Quiet (feat. Viro)
I woke up with a start
In a dream that crushed my heart
And it dug straight through my sleep
And I knew the wound was deep
In the silence of the night
I rushed headlong in my fright
I walked down an empty street
Searching for its wayward feet
Quiet
Why is it so quiet?
Is anyone there?
Quiet
Why is it so quiet?
Why does the nighttime sound so bare?
Why does the nighttime sound so bare?
I looked into her face
Saw her eyes look out of place
And I begged her for her name
But her look remained the same
As I watched her disappear
I tried hard to make her hear
As I shouted don't retreat
She succumbed to sweet defeat
Quiet
Why is she so quiet?
Is anyone there?
Quiet
Why is she so quiet?
As I speak all she does is stare
As I speak all she does is stare
We've crossed a thousand bridges
Burned a thousand more
No progress ever helps us
Hope's a distant shore
Religion has no answers
Only causes war
The gods have long surrendered
To the blood and guts and gore
# INSTRUMENTAL
The doors are all locked tight
And there's not a soul in sight
And I don't know where they hide
But there's nothing left inside
As my helplessness takes hold
I feel lost and numbed with cold
As I run until I fall
I hear the echo of my call
Quiet
Why is it so quiet?
Is anyone there?
Quiet
Why is it so quiet?
Why does no one seem to care?
Why does no one seem to care?
In a dream that crushed my heart
And it dug straight through my sleep
And I knew the wound was deep
In the silence of the night
I rushed headlong in my fright
I walked down an empty street
Searching for its wayward feet
Quiet
Why is it so quiet?
Is anyone there?
Quiet
Why is it so quiet?
Why does the nighttime sound so bare?
Why does the nighttime sound so bare?
I looked into her face
Saw her eyes look out of place
And I begged her for her name
But her look remained the same
As I watched her disappear
I tried hard to make her hear
As I shouted don't retreat
She succumbed to sweet defeat
Quiet
Why is she so quiet?
Is anyone there?
Quiet
Why is she so quiet?
As I speak all she does is stare
As I speak all she does is stare
We've crossed a thousand bridges
Burned a thousand more
No progress ever helps us
Hope's a distant shore
Religion has no answers
Only causes war
The gods have long surrendered
To the blood and guts and gore
# INSTRUMENTAL
The doors are all locked tight
And there's not a soul in sight
And I don't know where they hide
But there's nothing left inside
As my helplessness takes hold
I feel lost and numbed with cold
As I run until I fall
I hear the echo of my call
Quiet
Why is it so quiet?
Is anyone there?
Quiet
Why is it so quiet?
Why does no one seem to care?
Why does no one seem to care?
