The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows

We saw the western coast, I saw the hospital

Nurse the shoreline like a wound

Reports of lovers tryst were neither clear nor discript

We kept it safe and slow, the quiet things that no one ever knows

So keep the blood in your head and keep your feet on the ground

Today's the day it gets tired, today's the day we dropped out

Gave up my body and bed, all for an empty hotel

Wasting words on lowercases and capitals

So keep the blood in your head and keep your feet on the ground

Today's the day it gets tired, today's the day we dropped out

Gave up my body and bed, all for an empty hotel

Wasting words on lowercases and capitals

I contemplate the day we wed, your friends are boring me to death

Your veil is ruined in the rain, by then I knew I could do without

There's nothing new to talk about and though our kids are blessed

Their parents let them shoulder all the blame

So keep the blood in your head and keep your feet on the ground

Today's the day it gets tired, today's the day we dropped out

Gave up my body and bed, all for an empty hotel

Wasting words on lowercases and capitals

So keep the blood in your head and keep your feet on the ground

Today's the day it gets tired, today's the day we dropped out

Gave up my body and bed, all for an empty hotel

Wasting words on lowercases and capitals

I lie for only you

And I lie, well Hallelu'

I lie for only you

And I lie, well Hallelu'

So keep the blood in your head and keep your feet on the ground

Today's the day it gets tired, today's the day we dropped out

Gave up my body and bed, all for an empty hotel

Wasting words on lowercases and capitals

So keep the blood in your head and keep your feet on the ground

Today's the day it gets tired, today's the day we dropped out

Gave up my body and bed, all for an empty hotel

Wasting words on lowercases and capitals
