THE QUIET VOICE

By Alex Wong and Elise Hayes

Darling Darling, You’re not OK
I can see that you’re hurting
The look in your eyes shows me the pain
I feel the anger burning

Words hit you like handgrenades
Throw them back you could make them pay
But you know theres another way
Hiding in the silence

Let the quiet voice drown out all the noise
Even when they’re screaming out
I know that your love is louder
Let the battle cry fade away this time
Darling you still have a choice
Listen to the quiet voice

I know I know way down below
Deep in the place you hide it
The eye of the storm so clear and so calm
Waiting for you to find it

Heads spinning like a hurricane
Hard to hear what you mean to say
But the storm won’t go away
Until you climb inside it

And just ‘cause they shout it
Doesn't make it true
Cause everyone gets the loudest
When they’re about to lose
