Took your car to the river it was midnight
Moon so bright that we didnʼt need the headlights
I got out left my clothing on the hood
You were so still, couldnʼt see, couldnʼt see where you stood
And it was quiet it was so quiet
It was quiet it was so quiet

Water cold but it couldnʼt stop the fires
Helicopters over head keeping rhythm with the choirs
Twenty thousand abandoned their homes
They were gathered at the church cuz thereʼs nowhere else to go
And it was quiet it was so quiet
It was quiet it was so quiet, so quiet

All the while you were holding my hands
You were looking in my eyes like you knew Iʼd understand
And the water in my lungs brings the safety like the drugs
Like the drugs

Took your car to the river it was midnight
Moon so bright that we didnʼt need the headlights
I got out left my clothing on the hood
We were so sure, we did everything we could
And it was quiet it was so quiet
It was quiet it was so quiet

All the while you were holding my hands
You were looking in my eyes like you knew Iʼd understand
And the water in my lungs brings the safety like the drugs
Like the drugs
