The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows (acoustic) Lyrics

The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows (acoustic) lyrics

We saw the western coast 

I saw the hospital 

Nursed the shoreline like a wound 

Reports of lovers trysts 

Were neither clear nor descript 

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 

If today's the day it gets tired 

Today's the day we drop 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 

If today's the day it gets tired 

Today's the day we drop out 

Gave up my body and bed 

All for an empty hotel 

Wasting words on lower cases and capitals 

I contemplate the day we wed 

Your friends are boring me to death 

Your veil is ruined in the rain 

By then you 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 

So keep the blood in your head 

And keep your feet on the ground 

If today's the day it gets tired 

Today's the day we drop out 

Gave up my body and bed 

all for an empty hotel 

Wasting my words on lower cases and capitals 

So keep the blood in your head 

And keep your feet on the ground 

If today's the day it gets tired 

Today's the day we drop out 

Gave up my body and bed 

All for an empty hotel 

Wasting words on lower cases and capitals 

I lie for only you 

And I lie well 

Hallelujah 

I lie for only you 

And I lie well 

Hallelujah 

So keep the blood in your head 

(I lie for only you) 

And keep your feet on the ground 

If today's the day it gets tired 

Today's the day we drop out 

Gave up my body and bed 

All for an empty hotel 

Wasting words on lower cases and capitals 

(And I lie well) 

So keep the blood in your head 

And keep your feet on the ground 

If today's the day it gets tired 

Today's the day we drop out 

Gave up my body and bed 

All for an empty hotel 

(Hallelujah) 

Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
