Stop And Stare Lyrics By Onerepublic

    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’m gonna 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

    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
