Noah (Stand Still)

(albüm: The Hardest Part - 2022)

When I turned 20, I was overcome
With the thought that I might not turn 21
Death upon my doorstep
If I took just one more step
There'd be nothing left of me
Except these songs

And my father told me, "Noah
When you don't know where you're going
Just stand still
Soon enough you will
And when all the hope and joy you feel
Turns into paranoia 'cause it will
Remember, just stand still
Just stand still
Just stand still" oh

Six months sober
But nothing much has changed
Life's not over but I'm feeling twice the pain
I'm not better but I'm not quite the same
It keeps coming
So I keep counting the days

My grandfather told my father
"It don't get easier just harder, yes it will
Remember just stand still
And when all the hope and joy you feel
Turns into paranoia 'cause it will
Remember, just stand still
Just stand still
Just stand still" yeah

Just stand still and watch the sunset bleed
With only dirt under your feet to feel
Just stand still
67, 000 miles an hour around the sun
And that is how it feels
Just stand still
In a universe that's infinite
Yet everything gets lost in it, you will
Just stand still
You'll be right, you'll be wrong
You'll be fine, cause life goes on and on, until
Until

Just stand still
(Just stand still, just stand)
(Just stand still)
Just stand still, still
Just stand still
(Just stand still, just stand)
(Just stand still)
(Just stand still) Just stand still (Still)
Just stand still
Just stand still
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, just stand still
