In the Quiet - Slow Knights

I don’t miss the sun, I see it.

I don’t need to burn just to feel warm.

I don’t miss the fun, if that’s what you call it.

Life in the eye of the storm.

You meet on the corner, I stay at home.

It’s not being lonely, it’s living alone.

If life is right before your eyes,

I see enough from the inside.

I leave the streets to someone else

and let their feet play the rhythm —

That I dance to

in the quiet by myself.

Bliss in the quiet by myself.

I face these days just like you,

but don’t wish away time like everyone else.

I keep away from your hurricane

and close my doors to the rain.

And yes, life is right before your eyes,

but I see enough from the inside.

And so my heart becomes a home,

I make my own sweet bliss alone.

And leave the streets to someone else

and let their feet play the rhythm —

That I dance to

in the quiet by myself.
