Stop And Stare

Lyrics

This town is colder now, I think it's sick of us
 It's time to make our move, I'm shaking off the rust
 I've got my heart set on anywhere but here
 I'm staring down myself, counting up the years
 Steady hands, just take the wheel...
 And every glance is killing me
 Time to make one last appeal
 For the life I lead
 Stop and stare
 I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
 Yeah, I know that everyone gets scared
 But I've become what I can't be, oh
 Stop and stare
 You start to wonder why you're here not there
 And you'd give anything to get what's fair
 But fair ain't what you really need
 Oh, can you see what I see?
 ♪
 They're trying to come back, all my senses push
 Untie the weight bags, I never thought I could...
 Steady feet, don't fail me now
 I'mma run 'til you can't walk
 Something pulls my focus out
 And I'm standing down...
 Stop and stare
 I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
 Yeah, I know that everyone gets scared
 But I've become what I can't be, oh
 Stop and stare
 You start to wonder why you're here not there
 And you'd give anything to get what's fair
 But fair ain't what you really need
 Oh, you don't need
 ♪
 What you need, what you need...
 Stop and stare
 I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
 Yeah, I know that everyone gets scared
 But I've become what I can't be
 Oh, do you see what I see?
