chorus:
This quiet place
It ain't so new to me
It's haunted atmosphere
Has heard so many scream
My home from home
My twilight zone
My strangest dream

My confidant,I have confessed my life
The Quiet Room
Knows more about me than my wife

They've got this place
Where they've been keeping me
Where I can't hurt myself, I just can't
I just can't get these damn wrists to bleed

    D          A/D     D    A/D
A mattress on the floor
    D/F#      A/C#    Bm   D/A
No handles on the door
                   G
I really need nothing here
    Em  Em7,D  A/D  D
I'm alone
