Everyone Else Is Just Noise

Did you hear the news?
They're tearing our building down
Making way for the future
They don't want no relics around

And it makes me think
Can I treasure the memories?
Can I keep moving forward
With all of that mess inside me?

'Cause they move all the pieces when my eyes are closed
As if they could keep me from you
As if they could keep me from home
Beyond the reaches of your softest voice
Where everything else is distraction
And everyone else is just noise
Everything else is distraction
Everyone else is just noise

I am not immune
I've been burned and been beaten down
I'm trying to learn how to live with
What I'm faced with living without

I wish I could, but I can't
Please everyone all of the time
Hurt less and be loved more
And simply feel settled inside

But they move all the pieces when my eyes are closed
And everything feels out of order
And suddenly I am alone
Beyond the reaches of your loudest voice
Where everything else is distraction
And everyone else is just noise
Everything else is distraction
And everyone else is just noise

I'm starting to live without doubting
I'm learning to like who I am
I'm trying to let go a little
I'm starting to think that I can

I know all the pieces when my eyes are closed
Trusting that I'm in the right place
And knowing that I'm not alone
Within the reaches of your softest voice
Where everything else is distraction
And everyone else is just noise
Everything else is distraction
Everyone else is just noise
