Quiet Life

The Jealous Sound

Settle in for the night

It's the quiet life you've been waiting for

And all that you want it will be there

Well, don't you believe me?

Well, don't believe me anymore



I see you're scared as you stand on those stairs

Don't ask because you won't come back to me

My heart grows heavy, you can't start when you're not ready

I know it's fast

The hesitation dies but you won't outlast



By the time you see what's left

The distance will grow I suppose

You're all out of breath

And I should have known



It feels like nothing

But a hand keeps touching your heart

The first time you can't make sure

You better hold still, you're so smart



My heart, your hand

I swear I understand
