Afraid of Quiet
[00:10.43] Promise I'm fine when I'm not
[00:11.23] See my minds spinning round and around with my thoughts
[00:13.62] I'm a pot with no lid
[00:14.16] And the water is bubbling
[00:15.48] Bout to boil over the temperatures doubling
[00:17.60] Siren alarm in the night
[00:18.69] And I can't stop the noise
[00:19.48] Cos I swear there's a fire somewhere
[00:21.34] I can't see it or hear it
[00:22.14] or smell it or taste it
[00:22.67] but what if I'm not prepared how will I face it?
[00:25.06] If I could calm myself down
[00:26.12] Just breath in and breath out
[00:27.11] Take a second
[00:27.18] Let go of control
[00:28.54] Then my mind could be free
[00:31.77] But what if I drop the ball for just a moment?
[00:33.96] Who would pick it up, a friend or an opponent?
[00:35.68] Can't I just calm down
[00:41.87] Stop the sound
[00:45.06] Take a breath and just relax
[00:51.69] But sometimes
[00:54.87] I'm afraid of quiet
[01:01.51] And what that would mean
[01:05.70] Cry a lot, fill a room with my tears
[01:07.11] I'm like Alice, except I'm the only mad one here
[01:08.71] Wish I could face what is coming
[01:10.21] But I keep on running I'm chasing the bunny
[01:11.09] Did I wake you, my noise was too loud?
[01:13.43] I'm sorry next time I'll turn my grief down
[01:15.02] If my turmoil troubles you I can just leave and I'll cry in another room
[01:17.75] I swear that I'm in control
[01:20.94] Or least I will be
[01:24.39] Working on regulation
[01:25.45] Affirmation and therapy
[01:26.53] Breath control
[01:27.05] Become a better me
[01:27.84] Can't I just calm down
[01:33.42] Stop the sound
[01:36.07] Take a breath and just relax
[01:43.55] But sometimes
[01:46.00] I'm afraid of quiet
[01:52.11] And what that would mean
[02:06.46] Tossing and turning
[02:06.98] The suns in the sky
[02:08.32] It's 5am
[02:09.11] I can't close my eyes
[02:09.90] Want to turn off
[02:10.97] Just have some peace
[02:11.76] White noise is here
[02:12.83] And I can't sleep
[02:13.36] Tossing and turning
[02:14.45] The suns in the sky
[02:14.99] It's 5am
[02:15.78] I can't close my eyes
[02:16.60] Want to turn off
[02:17.42] Just have some peace
[02:18.26] White noise is here
[02:19.07] And I can't sleep
[02:20.11] Tossing and turning
[02:20.90] The suns in the sky
[02:21.44] It's 5am
[02:22.32] I can't close my eyes
[02:23.13] Want to turn off
[02:23.91] Just have some peace
[02:24.71] White noise is here
[02:25.31] And I can't sleep
[02:26.37] I swear that I'm in control or least I will be
[02:32.29] I am ruler of my mind and it will bow
[02:38.13] To me!
[02:44.32] To me!
[02:50.80] But sometimes
[02:53.83] I'm afraid of Quiet
[03:00.89] And what that would...
