Everything Is Quiet Songtext
von The Panics

Words are echoing
As I descend the stairs
Mind your head dear, she said
And the dust down there
And I′ll bend my back in her basement
'Cause there′s no use in the useless

Does it make you wonder?
Or do you hold it closer?
Or do you leave it all behind?

Stowaway, throwaway
'Cause memories will remind

Here's a portrait wrapped in a newsprint
It′s like a building boarded, tired and derelict
Out of sight and out of mind
These things we will find


Make me pause, give me shivers
A picture in a locket
Forget-me-not forgotten
And everything is quiet

Stowaway, throwaway
′Cause memories will remind

Stowaway, throwaway, blow away
On the wind they will scatter
Are we to be remembered
By all the things we treasure?
Memories are dream
In the eyes of a stranger

In her garden, she will tell me how she forgets
Her eyes are smiling, she sits and recollects

And in a moment's silence
A photograph in her hand reminds her
And there′s ether in her eyes

Stowaway, throwaway
'Cause memories will remind

Stowaway, throwaway, blow away
On the wind they′ll scatter


And everything is quiet
And everything is quiet
