One Republik - Stop and Stare

This town is colder now, I think it’s sick of us 

It’s time to make our move, I’m shakin' 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 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 tryin' to come back, all my senses push 

Untie the weight bags, I never thought I could 

Steady feet, don’t fail me now I'm gonna run till 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 What you need

 
Stop and stare I think I’m moving but I go nowhere 

Yeah, I know that everyone gets scared 

I’ve become what I can’t be Oh, do you see what I see?
