Everybody's telling me what I need to do What I gotta let go of and what I should hold on to Bad advice with good intentions The answer's still the thing I'm missing And everybody's telling me what I need to do Everybody's telling me where I need to go When to pack my bags and when to just go home I tried to put on love, tried to find my way You keep telling me it's gonna be okay When everybody's telling me where I need to go I need to hear your voice Something like magic cuts through the static and all the noise It could be a still, small, whispered song A crash of thunder that carries on Everyone's talking and no one's telling me the truth Settle me down Quiet or loud I want to hear you Everybody's telling me what I need to say Try to get the words right, tongue-tied, time slipping away All this pressure to please, to be well-spoken When sometimes all I feel is broken Everybody's telling me what I need to say I need to hear your voice Something like magic cuts through the static and all the noise It could be a still, small, whispered song A crash of thunder that carries on Everyone's talking and no one's telling me the truth Settle me down Quiet or loud I want to hear you See the way, walk in it, see the path come into view Hear the song and sing it, echo the good news See the way, walk in it, see the path come into view Hear the song and sing it, echo the good news I need to hear your voice Something like magic cuts through the static and all the noise It could be a still, small, whispered song A crash of thunder that carries on Everyone's talking and no one's telling me the truth Settle me down Quiet or loud I want to hear you
