Took your car to the river, it was midnight
Moon so bright that we didn't need the headlights
I got out, left my clothing on the hood
You were so still, couldn't see, couldn't see where you stood
And it was quiet, it was so quiet
It was quiet, it was so quiet
It was so quiet
Water cold but it couldn't stop the fires
Helicopters over head keeping rhythm with the choirs
20 thousand abandoned their homes
They were gathered at the church 'cause there's nowhere left to go
And it was quiet, it was so quiet
It was quiet, it was so quiet
It was so quiet
All the while you were holding my hand
You were looking in my eyes like you knew I'd understand
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 didn't 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 hand
You were looking in my eyes like you knew I'd understand
And the water in my lungs brings the safety like the drugs
Like the drugs
Like the drugs
Like the drugs
Like the drugs
