Noah Cyrus - Noah (Stand Still) Lyrics

When I turned twenty, I was overcome
With the thought that I might not turn twenty one
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 going
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

Six months sober, but nothing much has changed
Life's not over but I'm feeling twice the pain
And I'm not better, but I'm not quite the same
But it keeps coming, so I keep counting the days

And 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
The only dirt under your feet to feel
Just stand still
Sixty seven thousand miles an hour around the sun
And that is how it feels
Just stand still

In the universe's symphony, yeah
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, whoa
Just stand still
