QUIET from QUIET - EP by Donavan Henry
Quiet lives in the moment after the argument is over, when nothing else can be said, and the room itself feels heavy with what’s been lost. Blending R&B soul with country-rock textures, the song leans into restraint rather than release, letting space, repetition, and silence carry as much weight as the lyrics.
The verses trace the slow unraveling of a relationship not through explosions, but through what’s left behind. Empty rooms, lingering memories, and the ache of wanting to hear a voice one more time. The chorus circles the word quiet like a wound you can’t stop touching, capturing that hollow calm that follows when love slips away.
This song isn’t about closure. It’s about sitting with what remains when the noise fades and realizing there’s nothing left in the room but quiet.

Lyrics
verse 1:
After there’s no words left to say
After there’s been hell left to pay
After the wine has settled in
After the fight nobody wins
pre chorus:
That silence cuts like
a knife that digs deeper
Cold is the wound that replaces the fever
It’s slipping away
Our times up and loves leaving
The room
nothing left
In this room
chorus:
But Quiet
Quiet
Quiet
Quiet
Quiet
Quiet
(Repeat)
There’s nothing left in this room
But quiet
verse 2:
After I've tried to give you space
And the broken pieces swept away
After the hope to figure it out
Has found a new home to settle down in
pre chorus 2:
The lights are still on
The pictures still hanging
But ashes consume
The fire once flaming
You feel it too
There used to be love
In this room
There’s nothing left
In this room
chorus:
But Quiet
Quiet
Quiet
Quiet
(Repeat)
There’s nothing left in this room
But quiet
Bridge:
There are times I
Just want to hear your voice
Hear you say
How you really feel
About the things
That's gone away
Even a whisper
Is more than no words at all
How did it all go so wrong
Here I am
You standing there
And we've got nothing but
chorus:
But Quiet
Quiet
Quiet
Quiet
Quiet
Quiet
(Repeat)
There’s nothing left in this room
There's nothing left in this room
But quiet
