Liz Green The Quiet lyrics

I. I'll take the quiet
I'll take the winter
O I'll take the cold
I. I'll take the quiet
I'll take the winter
O I'll take the cold
And I. I'll take the forests
I'll take the rivers
O I'll take the fields
Its's coming up through the water
How it got down there well, hell, I'll never know
Well you better stake your corner
Choose your colours carefully as you well know
For at the end, it's all, it's all, it's all I know

O. O my skin is thin now
And I can't hold you
Within these paper hands
Well I'm much too weak to stand
And how. How the light gets in now
Open the window

While I'll feel it upon my pasty brow
It's coming up through the water
How it got down there well, hell, I'll never know
Well you better stake your corner
For the whistle is about to blow
At the end it's all, it's all, it's all I know

What. What have I left here
What have I built here
To stand up when I'm gone
Oh no, not long now
Still coming up through the water
How it got down there well, hell, I'll never know
And the dogs bark from their corners. And the leash it is about to go
And at the end it's all, it's all, it's all I know
It's all I know
All I know
