peace comes quietly - Q the trumpet feat. 백예린 (Yerin Baek)

My inside fell apart in silence I just threw a smiling cloth on the violence Painted laughs over cracks and bruises just to make it look like I’m fine with it Thinking back always feels so golden but there’s a shadow where the light was stolen Maybe nostalgia only glows ‘cause something darker’s standing close I used to walk with my eyes on the ground now I finally see what’s around Still I swear someone’s behind breathing quiet, staying out of sight When footsteps pass me on the street my whole spine skips a beat If anyone gets close to me, I bleed before we even meet Why do I live in worry? These waves keep chasing me Clear my head, clean slate peace comes quietly Butterflies in my stomach When I have to constantly prove that I’m still worth it Different kinds of love who can give them free rein without indulging themselves? All I wanted was to be genuine And whatever shape I could manage, yeah Waves, waves, waves Waves of memories How are you gonna pull me back to the ground if I stand still? If I were a solid rock I'd be a mountain after the darkest nights. And I’d have roots underneath the scars Hysterical melodies I can’t erase the voices in my head Back and forth, ways and paths I can’t detail who I was in the past I am peacefully beautiful 'cause peace comes quietly I wanna be me Out of fear and hate I’ll escape far Be safe, stay well I wanna be me Out of fear and hate I’ll escape far Be safe, stay well
