Bright lights
bitter streets
Spent too much time
on my knees
Round here
nothing's good for me
but I still can't make
the choice to leave
Well that's why
I dream all night
of a quiet life
that you can't provide
Where I was born
and raised
was concrete
in the rain
I never thought
I'd want a quiet life
until you came my way
I never knew that
I would need to get away
for a quiet life today
Oh I need to get away
for a quiet life today
Before you came around
I had a lot more laughs
and a lot more pounds
Now I lose myself by choice
Tryna get a bit of silence
in a world of your noise
I'm a coward 'cause I know
that I can't say no
to a life 'round here
that I don't even own
Where I was born
and raised
was concrete
in the rain
I never thought
I'd want a quiet life
until you came my way
I never knew that
I would need to get away
for a quiet life today
Oh I need to get away
for a quiet life today
The world I always knew
was busy streets
and crowded rooms
I never thought
I'd want a quiet life
until I met you
But you know
that I won't go
'Cause I'm a coward
don't you know
I'm a coward
don't you notice
I'm a coward
don't you know this
I'm a coward
don't you notice
Ah don't you know
Ah don't you know
