It's Always The Quiet Ones

(album: Autofiction - 2022)

Brittle little smile
Pretty petrol eyes
We keep our shadows locked up here inside

Try not to offend
Or to disappoint them
Write them letters you will never send

Oh they stay in shadows all the heart breakers
Oh they stay in shadows all the trouble makers
It's always the quiet ones
It's always the quiet ones

And don't show that you're hurt
You won't be the first
To hide the bruises there under your shirt

Oh and your secret's safe with me
So admit your complicity
And write them words that they will never read

Oh they stay in shadows all the heart breakers
Oh they stay in shadows all the trouble makers
It's always the quiet ones
It's always the quiet ones

Oh they stay in shadows all the heart breakers
Oh they stay in shadows all the trouble makers

Oh they stay in shadows all the heart breakers
Oh they stay in shadows all the trouble makers
It's always the quiet ones
It's always the quiet ones
