Quietly,
Close your eyes, step quietly.
No sound and they won't see you.
No sound and they won't pursue.
Step now
Step silently.
Don't speak
Don't cry
Don't tell
Step here
Step sofly
Don't let them near
Don't let them know
Your deadened soul
Step here,
Step calmly
Stay close, do not stray.
Stay imprisoned
Don't go amiss
Step now
Step Quietly.
***
Step Quietly by Painted Desert
