In a quiet place all by myself
Just me and my thoughts
Cup of coffee book from the shelf
It is not for nought
Here I find my peace of mind
Here the centre holds
Only way I can unwind
And soothe my troubled soul
Silence the bells
and lock the door
Peace and quiet
I want more
I try not to buy
what they sell
In a quiet place
all by myself
In a quiet place just me alone
With my thoughts of us
For my sins I do atone
And wait here for justice
I know sometimes that I do wrong
For I am only human
Try as I may to get along
Still am I consuming
I am not taking
any calls
As daylight fades
and nighttime falls
You must take care
of yourself
I’m in a quiet place
all by myself
In my solitude you haunt me
Dark memories of things I’ve done
In my solitude you taunt me
Reminiscing the tales I spun
I sit here alone
Ignoring the phone
Waiting for daylight to rise
Until the time
I’ve forgiven my crimes
And can look you in the eyes
In a quiet place all by myself
Just me and my thoughts
Cup of coffee book from the shelf
It is not for nought
Here I find my peace of mind
Here the centre holds
Only way I can unwind
And soothe my troubled soul
