The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I saw you there
And looked you straight between the eyes
And said i'm leaving
And i don't care
And i don't know if they were lies
But i don't need them
Cause standing still isn't easy
When the world's moving backwards
The world's moving backwards
So get your fill
But please believe me
That the world's moving backwards
The world's moving backwards
And so i say
So what if they're just stories
What if i need them
So i pray
That you'll give me grace if you can hear me
That you'll give me grace if you can hear
Cause standing still isn't easy
When the world's moving backwards
The world's moving backwards
So get your fill
But please believe me
That the world's moving backwards
The world's moving backwards
So i pray that you'll give me grace if you can hear me
That you'll give me grace if you can hear me
And i pray that you'll give us grace if you can hear me
You'll give us grace
You'll give us grace
You'll give us grace
Cause standing still isn't easy
When the world's moving backwards
The world's moving backwards
So get your fill
But please believe me
That the world's moving backwards
The world's moving backwards
The world's moving
The world's moving
The world's moving
