[INTRO — BARE PIANO] You always ask me what's wrong When I stop talking Maybe nothing's wrong Maybe I'm just quiet [VERSE 1] Everybody knows me loud First one laughing in the room If the night starts getting boring I'm the one they look to I know how to make 'em smile Even when I don't feel like it Been doing it so long Sometimes I forget when I'm hiding Then I get home Take my shoes off Phone keeps lighting up I turn it face-down And for the first time all day Nobody needs anything from me [PRE-CHORUS] You don't have to ask If I'm okay Every time I got nothing to say Sometimes silence Is the only place I don't gotta be somebody [CHORUS] Love me when I'm quiet When I don't know what to say When I'm not making you laugh Or giving you the best part of my day Love me when I'm quiet When there's nothing to perform If I sit there next to you And don't say a word Would you still want me When I'm quiet? [VERSE 2] You met me underneath the lights That's probably what you fell for Always moving Always smiling Always giving you a little more But that version gets tired too He just doesn't let it show Sometimes I don't need fixing I just need somewhere I can let him go So if I lean against you And stare at the ceiling Don't fill every second Trying to change what I'm feeling Just stay That's enough You don't know how rare that is [CHORUS] Love me when I'm quiet When I don't know what to say When I'm not making you laugh Or giving you the best part of my day Love me when I'm quiet When there's nothing to perform If I sit there next to you And don't say a word Would you still want me When I'm quiet? [INSTRUMENTAL BREATH] [BRIDGE — ALMOST A CAPPELLA] I know how to be wanted I know how to work a room I know exactly what to give When everybody's watching But I don't always know How to just be And believe that's enough For somebody So don't ask for the smile Don't ask for the song Don't tell me I'm different Just because the energy's gone Hold my hand Let the room stay still If you can love me here Maybe you love me for real [FINAL CHORUS — VOCALS BUILD] Love me when I'm quiet When the whole damn day wore me down When I got no clever words And I don't wanna be the loudest one around Love me when I'm quiet When there's nothing left to prove If the only thing I give tonight Is sitting here with you Would you still want me? [SOFT FALSETTO] Would you still want me? When I'm quiet [FINAL REFRAIN] No lights No crowd No music playing loud No moves No show Just somebody you know If that's enough Don't say it Just stay [OUTRO — BARE VOCAL] ... Thank you
