I used to run but I wore my shoes outnGot tired of burningnBridges downnSo I learned how to walk fast nhow not to look backnBut one daynAnd angel appeared on my shouldernHe said girl can’t you see what you’re doing?nCan’t live your life surrounded by ruinnnCome with me to a place of peacenTake some shade underneath an oak treenThere’s a space only love can fillnIf you want me to show you I willnYou must learn to be silent and stillnnNext thing I knownI was faced with a strangernWho was this changer, this rearrangernAll of the walls I had carefully constructed were down decomposednThey were worn out and rustednnSaid girl can’t you see where this got you?nYou’ve walked around acting like someone shot younnCome with me to a place of peacenKiss the sun in the air we breathenThere is a space only god can fillnYou think he won’t but he willnWhen you learn to be silent and stillnnNow it’s so quiet I can hear a pin dropnOnly sound is the clock that tick tock'snI have some friendsnThey're like chicken with no headsnLosing their mindsnJust to keep their kids fednnCome with me to a place of peacenListen close to your heartnThat beatsnOnly so many hours to killnIf you wanna find love, you willnWhen you learn to be silent and stillnWhen you learn to be silent and stillnWe must learn to be silent and still
