Lyrics Quiet as the Dead - Seeming

Quiet as the Dead

We tried slashing strangers' tires
We tried ending good romances
Spouted blasphemy to get a rise
Yeah we crashed a thousand dances
'Cause nobody warned us
'Cause nobody warned us though they knew
Every grownup that you trusted Lied to you
They were quiet as the dead
When it happened to them
Quiet as the dead
They may as well have been
So we tll ourselves
We’ll rais hell instead
That we’ll scream and scream
But it’s still quiet
As the dead
And I’ve walked with all my friends
Through the graveyards where we laughed
But now I now I read
Between the lines of every epitaph
'Cause nobody warned them
'Cause nobody warned them and now the disease
Fades into view in the heavenly blue
In the face of every screen
And the filthiest pages
Of the godliest books
Could all spring to life
But you remain unshook
Down in the burning jungle
The zoo of the young
Nobody warned you
What would it have done?
