Quiet

John Mayer · Inside Wants Out [1999]

Midnight, lock all the doors and turn out the lights

Feels like the end of the world this Sunday night



There's not a sound

Outside the snow's coming down

And somehow I can't seem to find

The quiet inside my mind



3:02, the space in this room has turned on me

And all my fears have cornered me here, me and my TV screen



The volume's down

Blue lights are dancing around

And still, I can't seem to find

The quiet inside my mind



Daylight is climbing the walls

Cars start and feet walk the halls

The world awakes and now I am safe

At least by the light of day
