Only Thing I Hear

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.

My parents say that you'll never amount to much

They say that I should be careful 'cause you're bad luck

When I try to ignore them, they say

"Listen up, this is how it will be"

I get so tired of listening to everyone

Tell me what should I be feeling, what I should want

So I try to ignore them but it never stops

I just can't get any peace

As I wander to your side of town each day

Where the windows are barred

And hopeless lays on the street

All the noise disappears

You're the only thing I hear

What they don't know is that I am a lot like you

It doesn't matter that we have an ocean view

Though it's all picture perfect, unlike me and you

They just fight all the time

And I get so tired of listening to everyone

Tell me I have everything that a girl should want

Because under the surface this place is corrupt

I just can't get any peace

As I wander to your side of town each day

Where the windows are barred

And hopeless lays on the street,

All the noise disappears

You're the only thing I hear

When there's thunder in the sky (you're the only thing I hear)

And the sirens blare at night (you're the only thing I hear)

When there's gunshots in the street (you're the only thing I hear)

There's no place I'd rather be (you're the only thing I hear)

As I wander to your side of town each day

Where the windows are barred

And hopeless lays on the street

All the noise disappears

You're the only thing I hear
