Shell
Shock (Quiet Man)
Quiet man on our silent street
Came back from war on silent feet
While other warriors came home, got work, got paid
He just came for a week but stayed.
Painted and wrote in his tidy room
Was never a best man, and never a groom
Kept all his shoes in tidy rows
To walk out in summer heat and winter snows
Quiet man is raging,
Beast in his mind wants caging somehow
Came back from war with a broken will
Quiet man, he lives there still. (x2)
Instrumental break
Quiet man on our silent street
Came back from war on silent feet
While other warriors came home, got work, got paid
He just came for a week but stayed.
Painted and wrote in his tidy room
Was never a best man, and never a groom
Kept all his shoes in tidy rows
To walk out in summer heat and winter snows
Quiet man is raging,
Beast in his mind wants caging somehow
Came back from war with a broken will
Quiet man, he lives there still. (x2)
