Everything is Quiet Lyrics

I'd like to find a way

If not for me then the others

To see another day

And I admire the way

You still make time for your mother

Though she lives so far away

It's chemical and grey

The ways in which we bicker

'Til our teeth all melt away

As night passes to day

We open up to the ether

'Til there's nothing left to say

And for a while

Everything is quiet

A tornado just came through

To remind us of our fragility

And all we've got to lose

Now the streets are filled with fear

It's no longer safe to travel

A fucking crazy start to the year

So we stay up way too late

And listen to the rainfall

We're resilient in the grey

The night weeps into day

Then everything is remade

From our collective pain

And for a while

Everything is quiet
