Only Thing I Hear Songtext
von Skylar Grey

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
