Lyrics
This Quiet Street
All is not well on this quiet street
Someone chose hell because it came with company
And now the price is being paid
For those choices that were made
While they all play the charade
And the devil still gets laid
...on this quiet street
I cannot breathe on this quiet street
Too much that's here squeezed the air right out of me
And they still come out to dance
For the fools who take a chance
On a counterfeit romance
With the dues paid in advance
...on this quiet street
No one's ever there to catch the cradle when it falls
No one really cares to know what's there behind those walls
And all is not well on this quiet street
But children don't tell when they're too afraid to speak
Are the nightmares just a dream?
From a world that's in-between
Or could life be that obscene
You can hear the silent scream
...on this quiet street
No one's ever there to catch the cradle when it falls
And no one really cares to know what's there behind those walls
But all is not well on this quiet street...
