North Carolina - Live

I'm a mile and a half off of the tracks
In Raleigh, North Carolina
Foot all jammed up from driving 14 hours
And my body can't sit upright
Hanging around watching the TV on mute
Listening to all of my money making peers

Yeah, and it's hard not to go to that
Place in my head
That'll stop me from ever leaving this room

Yeah, and it's all so confusing
Because I'm all worked up
Because all my thoughts are tangled into one
Panicked line of white noise

Drown out the voices
Drown out the noise
Drown out the bitterness yeah that I have stored
Drown out my wanting
Drown out the fear
You know that everything I've worked for
Is just gonna disappear

Because ever since I left you
I've got no one to call
I've got nothing to do but sit around and
Think about how I could have not hurt you

'Cause I am so sick of feeling
So sorry for myself
I go from insanely happy
To no, I don't want to be around anybody else

I'm not sure if you know
Exactly how you feel about me
So, why don't you come over here
And let me show you how you feel about me

Yeah, so drown out the voices
Drown out the noise
Drown out the bitterness yeah that I have stored
Drown out my wanting
Drown out the fear
You know that everything I've worked for
Is just gonna disappear, yeah, yeah

So I pretend I'm connected
I pretend I can feel
I pretend I care about what you think
'Cause intensity
It's never really been a problem for me
So I'm sorry if I scared you

I just wanna be
I just wanna be
I wanna let myself be loved

Drown out all of these voices
Drown out all this noise
Drown out the bitterness that I have stored
And take away my wanting
Take away this fear
Everything I've worked for, yeah

Drown out the voices
Drown out the noise
Drown out the bitterness yeah that I have stored
And drown out my wanting
Drown out the fear
Everything I've worked for
Is just gonna disappear

I'm a mile and a half off of the tracks
Stuck up here in this
Around Holiday Inn
In Raleigh, Durham, North Carolina

Thanks a lot
Thank you very much
