The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows
[Verse 1]
We saw the western coast
I saw the hospital
And nursed the shoreline like a wound
Reports of lover's trysts
Were neither clear nor descript
We kept it safe and slow
The quiet things that no one ever knows
[Chorus]
So keep the blood in your head
And keep your feet on the ground
Today's the day we get tired
Today's the day we dropped out
Gave up my body and bed
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
So keep the blood in your head
And keep your feet on the ground
Today's the day we get tired
Today's the day we dropped out
Gave up my body and bed
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
[Verse 2]
I contemplate the day we wed
Your friends are boring me to death
Veil is ruined in the rain
Though you know I can do without
There's nothing new to talk about
And though our kids are blessed
Their parents let them shoulder all the blame
[Chorus]
So keep the blood in your head
And keep your feet on the ground
Today's the day we get tired
Today's the day we dropped out
Gave up my body and bed
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
So keep the blood in your head
And keep your feet on the ground
Today's the day we get tired
Today's the day we dropped out
Gave up my body and bed
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
[Bridge]
I lie for only you
I lie well
Halleluh
I lie for only you
I lie well
Halleluh
[Chorus]
So keep the blood in your head
And keep your feet on the ground
Today's the day we get tired
Today's the day we dropped out
Gave up my body and bed
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
So keep the blood in your head
And keep your feet on the ground
Today's the day we get tired
Today's the day we dropped out
Gave up my body and bed
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
