Everything Is Quiet - The Panics

«Mind your head dear,» she said «and the dust down there»

But I’ll bend my back in a basement,

'Cause there’s no use in the useless.

Does it make you wonder?

Or do you hold it closer?

Or do you leave it all behind?

Stow away, throw away

'Cause memories will remind

Well here’s a portarait, wrapped in a newsprint

It’s like a building, boarded, tired and derelect

Out of sight, out of mind, these things we will find

make me pause, give me shivers

A picture in a locket, forget me, not forgotten

And everything is quiet

Stow away, throw away,

'Cause memeories will remind

Stow away, throw away, blow away

On the wind they will scatter

Will we be remembered, by all the things we treasured?

A memory’s a dream in the eyes of a stranger

In her garden she will tell me how she forgets

Her eyes are smiling, she sits and recollects

Then in a moments silence

a photograph in her hand reminds her

And there’s ether in her eyes

Stow away, throw away,

'Cause memeories will remind

Stow away, throw away, blow away

On the wind they’ll scatter

And everything is quiet

And everything is quiet.
