Quiet Surrender - Only Son

Snapped a twig and found wires inside

Scratching noises in the walls

They call them roof rats

Laid out the big traps

Aim messages at the unreachable man

There is something in my walls

I can hear it move and crawl

Like a giant secret thought

Always near but never caught

Never caught

These are the days we’ll never remember

These are the days that we’ll never remember

Dead castle and the traffic it slows

Know the melody your enemy hums?

It isn’t love we’re feeling

Fallen ceiling

So leave the good men out tonight

The hero’s ready for his fight

In his car he’ll disappear

Into nighttime far from here

It might be years

These are the days we’ll never remember

These are the days that we’ll never remember

These are the days of the quiet surrender

Oh my friend

We’ll never go back there again

Got to get out where something’s happening

We’re not winning alone

Oh it’s time

Yeah it’s time
