Quiet Town
Brandon Flowers, Jonathan Rado
(Ah yeah, oh no, the train, the train)
(Every two or three years the train kills somebody)
(Every two, three years, yup)
(Everyone knows about the train, okay, you hear it constantly)
(I think the train is a way to find your way out of this life)
(If you get hit by it)
A couple of kids got hit by a Union Pacific train
Carrying sheet metal and household appliances through the pouring rain
They were planning on getting married after graduation
Had a little baby girl, trouble came and shut it down
Things like that ain't supposed to happen
In this quiet town, families are tight
Good people, they still don't deadbolt their doors at night
In this quiet town
(In this quiet)
When we first heard opioid stories
They were always in whispering tones
Now banners of sorrow mark the front steps of childhood homes
Parents wept through daddy's girl eulogies
And merit badge milestones with their daughters and sons
Laying there lifeless in their suits and gowns
Somebody's been keepin' secrets
In this quiet town, they know how to live
Good people who lean on Jesus, they're quick to forgive
In this quiet town
And whenever I'm near the town I'll find some reason to give
And I will walk with the dead and the living where I used to live
And every time I see my parents in the prime of their lives
Offering their son the kind of love he could never put down
The part of me is still that stainless kid, lucky
In this quiet town, salt of the land
Hard-working people, if you're in trouble, they'll lend you a hand
Here in this quiet town
The first crop of hay is up
School let out and the sun beats down
Smoke billows from a Sunday train
That cries away from a quiet town
(Ah yeah, oh no, the train, the train)
(Ah ja, oh nein, der Zug, der Zug)
(Every two or three years the train kills somebody)
(Alle zwei oder drei Jahre tötet der Zug jemanden)
(Every two, three years, yup)
(Alle zwei, drei Jahre, ja)
(Everyone knows about the train, okay, you hear it constantly)
(Jeder weiß von dem Zug, okay, man hört ihn ständig)
(I think the train is a way to find your way out of this life)
(Ich denke, der Zug ist ein Weg, um aus diesem Leben zu finden)
(If you get hit by it)
(Wenn du von ihm getroffen wirst)
A couple of kids got hit by a Union Pacific train
Ein paar Kinder wurden von einem Union Pacific Zug getroffen

When we first heard opioid stories
Als wir zum ersten Mal Geschichten über Opioide hörten
They were always in whispering tones

Parents wept through daddy's girl eulogies
Eltern weinten durch die Elogen auf das Daddy's Girl
And merit badge milestones with their daughters and sons
Und Verdienstabzeichen Meilensteine mit ihren Töchtern und Söhnen

And whenever I'm near the town I'll find some reason to give
Und wann immer ich in der Nähe der Stadt bin, finde ich irgendeinen Grund zu geben
And I will walk with the dead and the living where I used to live
Und ich werde mit den Toten und den Lebenden gehen, wo ich früher gelebt habe
And every time I see my parents in the prime of their lives
Und jedes Mal, wenn ich meine Eltern in der Blüte ihres Lebens sehe
Offering their son the kind of love he could never put down
Bieten sie ihrem Sohn die Art von Liebe an, die er nie ablegen könnte
The part of me is still that stainless kid, lucky
Ein Teil von mir ist immer noch dieses makellose Kind, glücklich
In this quiet town, salt of the land
In dieser ruhigen Stadt, Salz der Erde
