[Intro] 
   

[Verse 1]

This town is c

older now, I t

hink it's sick

 of us

It's time to m

ake our move, 

I'm shakin off

 the rust

I've got my he

art set on any

where but here
          
I'm staring do

              
wn myself, cou

             
nting up the y

#
ears

[Pre-chorus]
           
Steady hands, 

              
just take the 


wheel
              
And every glan

              
ce is killing 


me
              
Time to make o

          
ne last appeal
                      
For the life I lead

[Chorus]

Stop and stare
              
I think I'm mo

           
ving but I go 

nowhere
              
Yeah I know th

        
at everyone ge

ts scared
              
But I've becom

              
e what I can't


 be, oh

Stop and stare
              
You start to w

              
onder why you'

    
re 'here' not 

there
              
And you'd give

              
 anything to g

 
et what's fair
              
But fair ain't

              
 what you real

  
ly need
              
Oh, can u see

[Verse 2]
             
They're tryin 

              
to come back, 

              
all my senses 


push
              
Un-tie the wei

              
ght bags, I ne

could
              
Steady feet, d

ow
              
Gonna run till

k
              
But something 

              
pulls my focus

 
 out
              
And I'm standi

[Chorus]

Stop and stare
