Matt Pierson - Quiet Place lyrics

[Instrumentals] [Verse 1] Oh, the gra** is green In my, American dream Bright rooms and picket fences And a backyard oasis Oh, my world is safe It's a small, brick hideaway Strong, with good defenses No solicitations [Pre-Chorus 1] I've built a safe, but a little lonely nation And I hear an invitation but [Chorus] I feel the heat on my face, burning with the truth I watch the walls give way, with just a stone or two I'm running back to that place, to remember who I am And what I lost of me, living on a quiet street [Verse 2] Love, was a distant noise Now I hear, a Holy voice Singing loud, breaking down this house To the bare foundation [Pre-Chorus 2] You called me out, of a life complacent I left that corner vacant but [Chorus] I feel the heat on my face, burning with the truth I watch the walls give way, with just a stone or two I'm running back to that place, to remember who I am And what I lost of me, living on a quiet street [Bridge] I'd rather gain my soul, than win the whole wide world So I'll run recklessly to a better dream Than I could reach, living on a quiet street [Chorus] I feel the heat on my face, burning with the truth I watch the walls give way, with just a stone or two I'm running back to that place, to remember who I am And what I lost of me, living on a quiet street [Instrumentals]
