lyrics

I'm alright being alone for a while
With window panes and a comfortable rain
I'm alright drowning my head in it all
A thunder storm is good for the brain

Moving slowly
Barely breathing
Ours is a quiet love
Why this vacant,
Fixed expression?
Ours is a quiet love

But I won't be leaving my heart in the flood
A broken heart is stronger than none
So don't ask me to color in my world with your name
A lonely love will bury the pain

Moving slowly
Barely breathing
Ours is a quiet love
Hold me gently
Palms wide open
Ours is a quiet love

Moving slowly
Barely breathing
Ours is a quiet love
Why so vacant,
Fixed expression?
It's only the end of the world
