Quiet Hours Lyrics by Stuart Clark

thoughts from the echo chamber

2021

[Chorus]
Keep it down, keep it down
Better never make a sound
Let every thought echo echo around
You gotta keep it all inside til the day you die
Cause they don’t deserve to know what’s in your mind, so
Keep it down, keep it down
Better pray I don’t drown
The chaos of the storm’s got me overboard now
So I’ll keep it to a hush, keep it to a dull roar
Now it’s quiet hours every time I step on the floor


[Verse 1]
Honestly I’d like to scream a little bit
But I don’t wanna wake the kids
Do I know who the savior is? It’s dangerous
To have a blabber-mouth, so zip it tight
Throw away the key, that’s right
It’s not hard to draw the line, nah
Go for four in a row, don’t know if I wanna grow
It’s hard to say, hard to know, the dissonance ain’t a joke
Am I a friend of a foe? A villain or a hero?
Will I relapse? Or take a knee like Tebow?
No
That’s a throwback, but you probably shouldn’t know that
I'm sorry, it just slipped my mind like jackets on a coat rack
I know that that was so bad, apologies, I’ll own that
Not growing for applause, but I wouldn’t mind a slow clap
But what’s the difference, no one listens, you’re just tripping, it’s ridiculous
Toss the vision, no one gets it, wouldn’t miss it
You’re permitted to quiet down and then never speak again
Cause it’s quiet hours, don’t you see, my friend? You don’t need a pen

[Chorus]
Keep it down, keep it down
Better never make a sound
Let every thought echo echo around
You gotta keep it all inside til the day you die
Cause they don’t deserve to know what’s in your mind, so
Keep it down, keep it down
Better pray I don’t drown
The chaos of the storm’s got me overboard now
So I’ll keep it to a hush, keep it to a dull roar
Now it’s quiet hours every time I step on the floor

[Verse 2]
All these thoughts and emotions, going in loop-the-loops
But when I try to write’em down, it’s like “whoop-di-do
What’s the big deal? just another 4 being dramatic"
I’ve had it with capping, so let’s wrap this up
I been given a chance, don’t wanna pass it up
Bad at love, maybe that’s an understatement
Tragic, huh?
Have you had enough?
Of course if I say no, then I’m an addict, huh?
And so I'm average, huh?
Well
That used be a nightmare, but now it’s just a slight scare
I said “gimme me five more minutes and I will not fight fair”
But that was three years ago, and we’re still trading blows
So I don’t know if I can stay awake and on my toes
So I’mmina quiet down, and settle the riot now
And take a look at my life, and maybe light it on fire now
I’ll reach for the stars, and pull my roots out of town
And then go pound for pound in the city with a crown, yeah

[Chorus]
Keep it down, keep it down
Better never make a sound
Let every thought echo echo around
You gotta keep it all inside til the day you die
Cause they don’t deserve to know what’s in your mind, so
Keep it down, keep it down
Better pray I don’t drown
The chaos of the storm’s got me overboard now
So I’ll keep it to a hush, keep it to a dull roar
Now it’s quiet hours every time I step on the floor
