lyrics

I'm always running out of time
But that's all any of us got
What did I do with mine
Nothing that I really want
It feels like nobody listens
They just want to talk talk talk over me
I see a change in the distance
Something left still to perceive
Let's have a quiet year
Spend a lot of time indoors
Let's have a quiet year
Don't act like you did before
Hunker down, ante up
Finally go through all your old stuff
And let's have a quiet year
I'm always cutting people off
But that's not who I want to be
I don't know to stop
And so I sit here silently
You learn way more when you listen
You don't have to talk talk talk to agree
Embark upon a new mission
Notice all the forests made out of trees
And have a quiet year
Spend a lot of time outside
Let's have a quiet year
Start with sorting out your mind
Throw it down, step it up
A lifetime sometimes isn't enough
Write it down, set it off
Time may be all any of us got
Let's have a quiet year
Ok?
