Noah (Stand Still)
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 goin'
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
As you get older, it gets harder to change
You might find yourself alone with just your shame
But it's not over
It's all gonna be okay
And when times are tough remember what I say
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 thousand 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, just stand still
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 goin'
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
As you get older, it gets harder to change
You might find yourself alone with just your shame
But it's not over
It's all gonna be okay
And when times are tough remember what I say
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 thousand 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, just stand still
