When We Turned Quiet - Aliza
Neon through the curtains
Flickers on the wall
Every quiet heartbeat
Feels the fall
We used to fill the silence
With silly little things
Now every empty moment
Barely even sings
Your eyes don't stay when I look your way
Like something fragile slipped away
I try to ask you what went wrong
But answers feel too thin, too long
You say we're fine, but I can feel it
In the way we speak and don't reveal it
That's when we turn quiet
Without a fight
Every little promise
Lost its light
That's when we turn quiet
In the midnight blue
Every lonely heartbeat
Misses you
Your hand in mine feels unfamiliar
Like love grew distant, not any clearer
We sit side by side, but worlds apart
With heavy silence on my heart
The clock keeps ticking loud and slow
Like it already knows what we don't show
All I really feel as days go by
Is something beautiful starting to die
That's when we turn quiet
Without a fight
Every little promise
Lost its light
That's when we turn quiet
In the midnight blue
Every lonely heartbeat
Misses you
Maybe someday we'll understand
How love slipped from hand to hand
But right now I feel it true
We stopped talking, me and you
Neon through the curtains
Fading out of sight
Every quiet heartbeat
Turned to quiet
Neon through the curtains
