Quiet

Have you ever wondered?
 Well, I have
 About how when I say, say red
 For example, there's no way of knowing if red
 Means the same thing in your head
 As red means in my head when someone says red
 And how if we are travelling at
 Almost the speed of light
 And we're holding a light
 That light would still travel away from us
 At the full speed of light
 Which seems right in our way
 But I'm trying to say
 I'm not sure
 But I wonder if inside my head
 I'm not just a bit different from some of my friends
 These answers that come into my mind unbidden
 These stories delivered to me fully written
 And when every shouts like they seem to like shouting
 The noise in my head is incredibly loud
 And I just wish they'd stop
 My dad and my mum
 And the telly and stories would stop for just once
 And I'm sorry
 I'm not quite explaining it right
 But this noise becomes anger and the anger is light
 And its burning inside me would usually fade
 But it isn't today
 And the heat and the shouting
 And my heart is pounding
 And my eyes are burning
 And suddenly everything, everything is
 Quiet
 ♪
 Like silence, but not really silent
 ♪
 Just that still sort of quiet
 Like the sound of a page being turned in a book
 Or a pause in a walk in the woods
 Quiet
 ♪
 Like silence, but not really silent
 ♪
 Just that nice kind of quiet
 Like the sound when you lie upside down in your bed
 Just the sound of your heart in your head
 And though the people around me
 Their mouths are still moving
 The words they are forming
 Cannot reach me anymore
 And it is quiet
 And I am warm
 Like I've sailed
 Into the eye of the storm
