Quiet Storm - Claude Kelly

it's only a paper cut
but it feels like a knife
it's only a moment
but i feels like my life
it's always the little things
that slip through and take you by surprise
when you don't call
when you stay gone
when you don't say everything you're thinking
try to be strong
try to brush off
and pretend that nothing in me is breaking

but inside it hits like thunder
inside the tears run just like a flood
i'm gonna smile like nothing's wrong
but it feels like a quiet storm
(whoa whoa whoa whoa)
and it hurts more than you'll ever know
(whoa whoa whoa whoa)
cos it feels like a quiet storm

breaking up blue skies
are the words from you lips
changing the atmosphere
when everything shifts
you're so unpredictable
it's hard to find reasons why to let you back in
when you don't call
when you stay gone
when you don't say everything you're thinking
hard to be strong
hard to brush off
and pretend that nothing in me is breaking

but inside it hits like thunder
inside the tears run just like a flood
i'm gonna smile like nothing's wrong
but it feels like a quiet storm
(whoa whoa whoa whoa)
and it hurts more than you'll ever know
(whoa whoa whoa whoa)
cos it feels like a quiet storm

and i'll never let you know
but inside the tempest grow (whoa)

cos inside it hits like thunder
inside the tears run just like a flood
i'm gonna smile like nothing's wrong
but it feels like a quiet storm

but inside it hits like thunder
inside the tears run just like a flood
i'm gonna smile like nothing's wrong
but it feels like a quiet storm..
