Matt Jones - When It's Quiet Lyrics

When it's quiet
So much you can even hear the sound
Of your own heart beating
Slow, so slow
When it's quiet, you're allowed to just say "no"
When it's calm
Silence doesn't scare you and the candle
On the shelf is just a long time friend
When it's calm, you're a child again
When it's safe
Safe to write your story how you want it
To be read by anyone who cares
When it's safe, being awake feels fair
When it's quiet
So much you can even hear the sound
Of your own heart beating
Slow, so slow
When it's quiet, you're allowed to just say "no"
When it's quiet, no one sees where you go
