Songs that express my thoughts better than I do

Stop and Stare

OneRepublic

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 
I'm staring down myself, counting up the years 
Steady hands, just take the wheel... 
And every glance is killing me 
Time to make one last appeal... for the life I lead 

Stop and stare 
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere 
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared 
But I've become what I can't be, oh 
Stop and stare 
You start to wonder why you're 'here' not there 
And you'd give anything to get what's fair 
But fair ain't what you really need 
Oh, can u see what I see 

They're tryin to come back, all my senses push 
Un-tie the weight bags, I never thought I could... 
Steady feet, don't fail me now 
Gonna run till you can't walk 
But something pulls my focus out 
And I'm standing down... 

Stop and stare 
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere 
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared 
But I've become what I can't be, oh 
Stop and stare 
You start to wonder why you're here not there 
And you'd give anything to get what's fair 
But fair ain't what you really need 
Oh, you don't need 

What u need, what u need... 

Stop and stare 
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere 
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared 
But I've become what I can't be 
Oh, do u see what I see...

The Reason

Hoobastank

I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning

And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is You

Whisper

A Fine Frenzy

running the race like a mouse in a cage

getting nowhere, but I'm trying

forging ahead but I'm stuck in the bed that I made,

so I'm lying

but if you keep real close, yeah, you stay real close I will reach you.

I'm down to a whisper in a daydream on a hill

shut down to a whisper can you hear me still

eager to please, trying to be what they need

but I'm so very tired

I've stopped trying to find any peace in my mind

'cause it tangles the wires

but if you keep real close, yeah, you stay real close

I will reach you.

I'm down to a whisper in a daydream on a hill

shut down to a whisper, can you hear me

can you hear me

still the sound,

it dies on my lips

to fade away

and to forget

I'm down to a whisper

in a daydream on a hill

shut down to a whisper

can you hear me, can you hear me (repeats) still
