No Peace In Quiet

by Delta Rae

on Salem's Wych (2019), A Long And Happy Life EP (2017)

[Verse 1]
My friends are always over so I'm not alone
And the TV's on the second that they leave
Ghosts don't stand a chance against the radio
That's why I turn the music up to sleep

[Chorus]
Cause there's no peace in quiet
Just footsteps on the stairs
Whispers in the silence
Remind me you're not there
There's no peace in quiet

[Verse 2]
Tonight, I'll lay down knowing you're not coming home
Then I'll swear I hear your keys outside my door
And I'll hate myself for checking as if I don't know
That it's just the wind chimes on the neighbor's porch

[Chorus]
Cause there's no peace in quiet
Just footsteps on the stairs
Whispers in the silence
Remind me you're not there
There's no peace in quiet

[Bridge]
I hear you standing in the shower
Hear you breathing in my bed
But there's nothing I hear louder
Than the words I never said

[Chorus]
Cause there's no peace in quiet
Just footsteps on the stairs
Whispers in the silence
Remind me you're not there
There's no peace in quiet
There's no peace
