[intro – quick drum fill, guitars hit bright power chords] Let’s go! [verse 1 – playful, quick delivery] I’ve been writing the world’s best plans in a notebook, Never once looked at ‘em twice. I’ve been preachin’ like a man with a mission, While my couch is eatin’ my life. [pre-chorus – bass walks, guitar climbs] If I say it again, I’m gonna throw up, Need to get out before the sun blows up. [chorus – full band, shout-along] What you do speaks so loudly, I can’t hear what you say. So I’m ditchin’ my excuses, And I’m movin’ today. Gonna trade in all my talk, For a better display, ‘Cause my truth’s in the action, Not the noise I’ve made. [verse 2 – guitars chug, toms add bounce] I’ve been the king of “just five more minutes,” Every hour’s gone the same. I’ve been dreamin’ like the credits keep rollin’, But I never get to the frame. [pre-chorus – same build] If I say it again, I’m gonna throw up, Need to get out before the sun blows up. [chorus – repeat, with extra harmonies] What you do speaks so loudly, I can’t hear what you say. So I’m ditchin’ my excuses, And I’m movin’ today. Gonna trade in all my talk, For a better display, ‘Cause my truth’s in the action, Not the noise I’ve made. [bridge – slower, melodic lead guitar] No more speeches in my mirror, No more castles in my head. I’m gonna build it with my hands, Before the dream turns dead. [final chorus – fastest, most energetic, gang vocals] What you do speaks so loudly, I can’t hear what you say. So I’m ditchin’ my excuses, And I’m movin’ today. Gonna trade in all my talk, For a better display, ‘Cause my truth’s in the action, Not the noise I’ve made. [outro – quick stop on last chord, drummer yells “Finally!”]
