“The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows” is a song about being in a relationship and ending it prematurely because you know it’s going to end.
Thie song is the second single off Deja Entendu.
[Verse 1: Jesse Lacey]
We saw the western coast
I saw the hospital
And nursed the shoreline like a wound
Reports of lover's trysts
Were neither clear nor descript
We kept it safe and slow
The quiet things that no one ever knows
[Chorus: Jesse Lacey & Vincent Accardi]
So keep the blood in your head
And keep your feet on the ground
Today's the day we get tired
Today's the day we dropped out
Gave up my body and bed
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lowercases and capitals
So keep the blood in your head
And keep your feet on the ground
Today's the day we get tired
Today's the day we dropped out
Gave up my body and bed
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lowercases and capitals
[Verse 2: Jesse Lacey]
I contemplate the day we wed
Your friends are boring me to death
Your veil is ruined in the rain
By then, it's you I can do without
There's nothing new to talk about
And though our kids are blessed
Their parents let them shoulder all the blame
[Chorus: Jesse Lacey & Vincent Accardi]
So keep the blood in your head
And keep your feet on the ground
Today's the day we get tired
Today's the day we dropped out
Gave up my body and bed
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lowercases and capitals
So keep the blood in your head
And keep your feet on the ground
Today's the day we get tired
Today's the day we dropped out
Gave up my body and bed
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lowercases and capitals
[Bridge: Jesse Lacey]
I lie for only you
And I lie well
Halleluh
I lie for only you
And I lie well
Halleluh
[Chorus: Jesse Lacey & Vincent Accardi]
So keep the blood in your head
And keep your feet on the ground
Today's the day we get tired
Today's the day we dropped out
Gave up my body and bed
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lowercases and capitals
So keep the blood in your head
And keep your feet on the ground
Today's the day we get tired
Today's the day we dropped out
Gave up my body and bed
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lowercases and capitals

In an interview with IMX after Deja Entendu’s release, Jesse Lacey was asked what inspired him to write the song:
I don’t know. That was actually a song that Vin wrote and then I put lyrics to later. Well, the song is about kind of being in a relationship and knowing that it’s going to end, so you...
