Quiet
Skaar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Doubt in your eyes, I'm trying not to bother
I don't wanna ask you how you feel
In the back of my mind, I know you've got a problem
Hitting harder every time though it don't speak

Ooh, you said it felt so easy when we were seventeen
You said, I said, we said it, we said it
Now we've traded being close to keeping company
You fell, I fell, we felt it, we felt it

Can't hear what you're thinking
Throw it out in the open, love
I'm running out of reasons
To stay quiet now
Could be over in a second
Throw it out in the open, love
I'm running out of patience
You're so quiet now

Why, why, why?
You're so quiet now
Why, why, why?

How are you fine with sleeping after fighting
While I'm staying silent on my side?
4 AM lying, never seem to leave me
Doesn't help me when I have to clear my mind

Ooh, you said it felt so easy when we were seventeen
You said, I said, we said it, we said it
Now we've traded being close to keeping company
You fell, I fell, we felt it, we felt it

Can't hear what you're thinking
Throw it out in the open, love
I'm running out of reasons
To stay quiet now
Could be over in a second
Throw it out in the open, love
I'm running out of patience
You're so quiet now

Why, why, why?
You're so quiet now
Why, why, why?
You're so quiet now
Why, why, why?
You're so quiet now
Why, why, why?
You're so quiet now

Ah, ooh
You're so quiet now




Ah, ooh
You're so quiet

“Ooooooo you said it felt so easy when we were 17”. The chord/note progression. The voice. That melancholy lyric. The production. All so perfect.
