The streets are closed, the phones are deadMy mind keeps spinning in my bedThe clock says two, the world’s asleepAnd I have promises I didn’t keepBut tonight I don’t pretendI’m not in love, I’m not a friendI’m just a soul in quiet spaceWith no one left I have to faceNowhere to be,And that’s okay with meNo need to show, no role to playJust let the silence stayNo stories told, no morning rushJust one soft lamp and snowfall hushNowhere to beAnd that’s how I feel freeI light a candle, write a lineNo one will read, and that’s just fineThe kettle hums a lonely songBut peace and stillness can’t be wrongI don’t reply, I don’t explainThis is my quiet, not my shameIn all this still, I start to findA softer way to hold my mindNowhere to be,And that’s okay with meNo need to show, no role to playJust let the silence stayNo stories told, no morning rushJust one soft lamp and snowfall hushNowhere to beAnd that’s how I feel freeWe’re always running toward the sunBut I have found that I don’t runThe moonlight gives me room to feelAnd tells me quiet can be realNowhere to be,I’ll stay right hereWith every thought a little clearI’ll let the snow decide my paceAnd welcome stillness in this placeNo maps, no keys, just honestyNowhere to beIs home for me
