Did you hear the news?
They're tearin' our buildin' down
Makin' way for the future
They don't want no relics around
And it makes me think
Can I treasure the memories?
Can I keep movin' forward
With all of that mess inside me?
'Cause they move all the pieces when my eyes are closed
As if they could keep me from you
As if they could keep me from home
Beyond the reaches of your softest voice
Where everythin' else is distraction
And everyone else is just noise
Everythin' else is distraction
Everyone else is just noise
I am not immune
I've been burned and been beaten down
I'm tryin' to learn how to live with
What I'm faced with living without
I wish I could, but I can't
Please everyone all of the time
Hurt less and be loved more
And simply feel settled inside
But they move all the pieces when my eyes are closed
And everythin' feels out of order
And suddenly I am alone
Beyond the reaches of your loudest voice
Where everythin' else is distraction
And everyone else is just noise
Everythin' else is distraction
And everyone else is just noise
♪
I'm startin' to live without doubtin'
I'm learnin' to like who I am
I'm tryin' to let go a little
I'm startin' to think that I can
I know all the pieces when my eyes are closed
Trustin' that I'm in the right place
And knowin' that I'm not alone
Within the reaches of your softest voice
Where everythin' else is distraction
And everyone else is just noise
Everythin' else is distraction
Everyone else is just noise
