Look at that cloud hang 
 Up off the lookout hills 
 That's where my head is 
 And i keep banging my shins 
    There's another world 
 Above this one 
 That's where i've trying to live 
 But i get dragged down   
 There's another world 
 Better than this one 
 And that's where i've trying to live 
 But i get dragged down   
 Stand still 
 Stand still 
 Can we just stand still   
 Stand still 
 Come on, stand still 
 No no no no stand still   
 This whole town is 
 All the buildings there are blocking sun and blocking 
 Sun 
 I know it's you who's rushing to the light 
 With their open mouths and appetites 
 They ate the ground and now the sky 
 They roll it out like pigeon wire   
 Stand still 
 Stand still 
 Can't they just stand still   
 Stand still 
 Stand still 
 Can't we just stand still   
 So we packed our bags and headed west 
 She said i know a place where they can't get, where 
 They can't get us 
 She slid my tired fingers into hers 
 And it was sunlight touching every curve, every scar 
 And this will be the moment that breaks my heart 
 Where the time creeps in and we grow apart   
 Can we just stand still 
 Stand still 
 Can we just stand still   
 Stand still 
 Let our lungs fill 
 Can we just stand still   
 That's what i'm talking about 
 Her sneakered feet hardly hitting the ground 
 Thoughts like a rush hour downtown 
 You're either sticking or pump-pumping 'em out 
 Drop me in the dark green 
 Lock me in the midst of the ? hill 
 Hide me in the old crow black night 
 Hide me ? 
 I was ?     
 Listen to the drum of the gulf go 
 Listen to the drumming it's so slow 
 Listen to the drum of the gulf go 
 Listen to the drumming it's so slow 
 Listen to the drum of the gulf go 
 Listen to the drum of the gulf going stand still
