"Quiet Life" lyrics

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?
