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.

(G#m)I'm starin' down myself, countin' up the years.

Steady hands, just take the wheel.

Ev'ry glance is killin' me.

Time to make one last appeal

for the life I lead.

(E)Stop and stare.

I think I'm movin', but I (Bsus)go nowhere.

Yeah, I know that (C#m)ev'ryone gets scared,

but I've become what I can't be.

Oh, (E)stop and stare.

You start to wonder why you're (Bsus)here,

not there.

And you'd give anything to (C#m)get what's fair,

but fair ain't what you really need.

Oh, can you see what I (E)see?

They're try'n' to come back, on all my senses push.

(G#m)Untie the weight bags, I never thought I could.

Steady feet, don't fail me now.

I will run 'til you can't walk.

Somethin' pulls my focus out

and I'm stand down.

lead. (E)Stop and stare.

I think I'm movin', but I (Bsus)go nowhere.

Yeah, I know that (C#m)ev'ryone gets scared,

but I've become what I can't be.

Oh, (E)stop and stare.

You start to wonder why you're (Bsus)here,

not there.

And you'd give anything to (C#m)get what's fair,

but fair ain't what you really need.

Oh, can you see what I (E)see?

(A)need. Oh, you don't need.

(E)Stop and stare.

I think I'm movin', but I (G#m)go nowhere.

Yeah, I know that (C#m7)ev'ryone gets scared.

I've become what I can't be.
