The Quiet

from Weekends by Free Parking!

lyrics

Well, I don't have much to say
I hope that is okay
Cuz it's hard to articulate
When there's a riot sounding off inside my brain

When it's cold I shoot people to save face
Cuz I know I am good at inflicting pain

But spend one day inside my head
And lesser men would end up dead
They'd call out for their moms and deities
And say "Could you keep it quiet for today?"

It never really goes away
When a car backfires I'm in another place

Shaking hands, mugs of coffee, rainy days
Afghanistan, tiny pieces, broken plate

They'll spend one day inside my head
And probably they'll end up dead
They'll call out for their dog and clarity
And they'll say "Could you keep it quiet for today?"

One in five
I got this medal/mettle/metal and I didn't even try

Well I don't have much to say
You wouldn't get it anyway

Oh, unless you spend one day inside my head
And I bet that you'll end up dead
You'll call out for your wife and family
And say "C-c-could you keep it quiet for today?"
