I Will Go Quietly

Shivaree


I will go quietly 
Don't move your chair 
Won't even try it 
Wouldn't even dare 
You come walking down 
With a mouthful of sand 
We better cut it out 
Cause it's out of hand 
And it's loud out on the street 
So please 

I will go quietly 

Drive with my lights out 
Won't even change my clothes when I get there 
I'll go so quietly 

I swear 

I will go quietly 
I'll leave my speech 
Hold down the mystery 
With a throat full of bleach 
And I won't go talking now 
Not even a sigh 
I'll sleep on a broken bough 
With a nail in my eye 
And I won't hear a beat again 
I will go quietly 

But I'll stay screaming inside your sleep 
I'll stamp out the moon and I'll shear all of your sheep 

I will go quietly 
I won't brush my teeth 
Won't even tell myself when I get there 
I'll go so quietly 
No one will even see 
And they won't hear 
I'll go so quietly 
I swear
