[Verse 1]

Lay me down

Feels like home

On the ground

When the cold hits my bones


[Pre-Chorus]

I keep counting my breath, watching all of my steps

Shells are echoing off the floor

Fragile moves that I make always lead to mistakes

Wish I'd just my mouth long before


[Chorus]

Ooh ooh ooh, Ooh ooh ooh

I've been living, living in a, living in a quiet place

Ooh ooh ooh, Ooh ooh ooh

I've been living, living in it, tripping over caution tape


[Verse 2]

Swept the mess

Under the rug

So many times

I can see it piling up


[Pre-Chorus]

Make it all about you like you always do

Build a shelter from all the blame

And I'll silence my mind, drift to somewhere in time

Where all this melts away


[Chorus]

Ooh ooh ooh, Ooh ooh ooh

I've been living, living in a, living in a quiet place

Ooh ooh ooh, Ooh ooh ooh

I've been living, living in it, tripping over caution tape


[Post-Chorus]

Maybe someday you'll hear what I say

Maybe someday I won't have to tiptoe around all day


[Outro]

Ooh ooh ooh, Ooh ooh ooh

I've been living, I've been living

Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh

I've been living
