Quiet, I am sleeping,
In here, I need a little hope
For years, I've been sleeping
Helpless, couldn't tell a soul
Be ashamed
Of the mess you've made
My eyes never forget, you see
Behind me
Silent metal mercies
Castrate boys to the bone
Jesus, are you listening
Up there, to anyone at all
We are the fossils, the relics of our time
Mutilate the meanings so they're easy to deny
Be ashamed
Of the mess you've made
My eyes never forget, you see
Behind me

Quiet, quiet
I am sleeping
Quiet, quiet
I am sleeping
Quiet, shut up
I don't trust you
Shut up, shut up
I can't hear you
Be ashamed
Of the mess you've made
My eyes never forget, you see
Behind me
Behind me, the grace of falling snow
Cover up everything you know
Come save me from the awful sound
Of nothing
