lyrics

Loud, and undone, you can barely hear the salmon run
Through the ships and the boats, there’s only so long that you can float.
Silencing noise, fall and recoil from the deafening sound of the machines,

When what we really need is a little bit of peace
How ‘bout a quiet time?
How ‘bout a quiet place?

Loud, like a drum, piercing through a never ever softened soundscape.
Noise, never cease, a motorcade of penetrating boat wakes.
Darkening blue,
Thunderous clue
To the soul and the heart of the machine.

When what we really need is a little bit of peace.
How ‘bout a quiet time?
How ‘bout a quiet place?

Loud, overrun, oil and engines echo ‘cross a crowded sea lane.
Jets’ violent screams, in a dream that nightmares come to shatter in place.
There’s only so much that you can take.
There’s only so much that you can take.
Fast from the shore,
Deafening roar,
Endless spectacle, less and less to see.

When what we really need is a little bit of peace.
How ‘bout a quiet time?
How ‘bout a quiet place?

Instrumental Bridge

Loud, like a gun, buzzing through the ears to hear is but a dead thing.
Drowned from above, would you mind a little silence it’d mean everything?
Would you mind a little silence it’d mean everything?
Would you mind a little silence it’d mean everything?
Broken and torn,
Plastic deformed
On the shoal where all the pups should be.

When what we really need is a little bit of peace.
How ‘bout a quiet time?
How ‘bout a quiet place?



Loud, and undone, you can barely hear the salmon run
