(Verse 1) The street outside is screaming, and the walls are thin tonight The loud ones trade their kindness for the chance to be right They're building towers out of greed and calling it a crown And I've been standing in the rubble, trying not to drown (Pre-Chorus) I packed a bag of quiet, just a handful of my own A little bit of courage so I don't feel so alone (Chorus) Where can a tired heart go When the world's gone wild and the wise won't show? Is there a road, a door, a light I haven't seen? Somewhere the noise can't find me Somewhere the noise can't find me (Verse 2) The insane ones speak in certainty, the greedy speak in gold And both of them keep shouting that the other one's the cold I don't want to fight their war, I don't want to wear their shame I just want a patch of earth that doesn't know my name (Pre-Chorus) Maybe north, maybe the sea, maybe just one honest friend Somewhere this restless ache inside could finally end (Chorus) Where can a tired heart go When the world's gone wild and the wise won't show? Is there a road, a door, a light I haven't seen? Somewhere the noise can't find me Somewhere the noise can't find me (Bridge) And I know it's hard — believe me, I know The maps all lead to places that I've already been But I keep one small flame against the wind And I walk, and I walk, and I begin again (Final Chorus) Where can a weary soul go When the loud won't listen and the lost won't grow? There's a road, I swear, though I can't always see Somewhere the noise can't find me Somewhere the noise can't find me And maybe — that somewhere starts with me
