It's Quiet Now - S.H.E

It's quiet Now that you're gone Things with you never felt right I'm feeling oh, so strong There for me, you are There for me, finally, I see But you keep crawling, crawling back Begging me Stuck in my head Going over and over the things that we said Stuck on repeat Is a melody that's always out of key, key, key Stuck in my head Going over and over the things that we said Stuck on repeat Is a melody that's always out of key, key, key I'm golden Sunlight's jealous of me I put you in my rear view Living blissfully Stuck in my head Going over and over the things that we said Stuck on repeat Is a melody that's always out of key, key, key Stuck in my head Going over and over the things that we said Stuck on repeat Is a melody that's always out of key, key, key We try our best to love but all we do is fight Freedom To have some place in the sun that someday you and I will rise We try our best to love but all we do is fight Freedom To have some place in the sun that someday you and I will rise It's quiet Now that you're gone I'm golden I'm golden It's quiet Now that you're gone I'm golden I'm golden

If I were God, I'd blind the youth The gnawing weight of final night To all the pain that hides in truth Unwilling, I have been fed to life Bellowing for just a crumb Static in the constant hum To drink from life's flowing stream Poisoned Upon loss Upon loss, we're reminded of hell Existence of pain and free will Denial A cancer that eats at the shell Lost forever Loss Upon loss lives denial Upon loss, how can I move on now? Are you washed in, in the blood? (Are you washed in the blood?) It sinks in its teeth It comes for us all (I can't see the roots of his shadow) Are you washed in, in the blood? It comes for me in the dead of night In the dead of night I was visited by death again Upon loss Everything is quiet now!

Light shines down from the windows of your house The rain passes lightly Pink tangerine that lives on your wall Spins your room slightly Your eyes are open, it's almost morning I daydream your voice It echoes through the walls In my mind, your voice ain't mine It is so quiet that it's loud It is so quiet that it's loud It is so quiet It is so quiet, it's loud And the night drags on We finish drinks sideways Telephone rings, rattles once and stops It hangs up while you're dreaming My eyes are open now, outside it's pouring I daydream your voice It echoes through the halls In my mind, racing through the crowd I hear your voice say mine It is so quiet that it's loud It is so quiet that it's loud It is so quiet that it's loud Mmm, it is so quiet, it's loud It is so quiet, it's loud So quiet, it's loud It is so quiet, it's loud

Wish you gave me your number Wish I could call you today Just to hear a voice I got a long way to go Getting further away If I didn't know the difference Living alone probably be okay It wouldn't be lonely I got a long way to go Getting further away A lot of hours to occupy it was easy When I didn't know you yet Things I'd have to forget But I better be quiet now I'm tired of wasting my breath Carrying on, getting upset Maybe I have a problem But that's not what I wanted to say I prefer to say nothing I got a long way to go Getting further away Had a dream as an army man with an order Just to march in my place But a dead enemy, screams in my face But I better be quiet now I'm tired of wasting my breath Carrying on, not over it yet Wish I knew what you were doing Why you want to do it this way So I can't go the distance I got a long way to go I'm getting further away I got a long way to go Getting further away

There are moments that the words don't reach There is suffering too terrible to name You hold your child as tight as you can Then push away the unimaginable The moments when you're in so deep Feels easier to just swim down And so they move uptown And learn to live with the unimaginable I spend hours in the garden I walk alone to the store And it's quiet uptown I never liked the quiet before I take the children to church on Sunday A sign of the cross at the door And I pray That never used to happen before If you see him in the street walking by himself Talking to himself, have pity You would like it uptown, it's quiet uptown He is working through the unimaginable His hair has gone grey, he passes every day They say he walks the length of the city You knock me out, I fall apart Can you imagine? Look at where we are Look at where we started I know I don't deserve you But hear me out, that would be enough If I could spare his life If I could trade his life for mine He'd be standing here right now And you would smile And that would be enough I don't pretend to know The challenges we're facing I know there's no replacing what we've lost And you need time But I'm not afraid I know who I married Just let me stay here by your side And that would be enough If you see him in the street, walking by her side Talking by her side, have pity Do you like it uptown? It's quiet uptown He is trying to do the unimaginable If you see him walking in the park, long after dark Taking in the sights of the city Look around, look around, look around They are trying to do the unimaginable There are moments that the words don't reach There's a grace too powerful to name We push away what we could never understand We push away the unimaginable They're standing in the garden Standing there side by side She takes his hand It's quiet uptown Forgiveness, can you imagine? Forgiveness, can you imagine? If you see him in the street, walking by her side Talking by her side, have pity Look around, look around They are going through the unimaginable
