Loud

[Verse 1]

Why don't they hate you? Why do they hate me?

Why are their blogs set up to debate, but only forsake me?

Huh, how am I doing? And why do you care?

When my failures come with smiles

When I win, I write, you just compare

So why must I try to own your love

When I'm better than what I've been?

But that's not good enough

Why? (Why?)

You can't hear my decency

Instead of me singin' at friends, I'm talkin' over enemies

[Chorus]

The world is so loud, loud, loud

It's so loud, loud, loud

It's like hearin' pins drop in the crowd

They won't stop until they goddamn tear you down

Man, the world is so loud, loud, loud

It's so loud, loud, loud

I try to drown 'em all out in my sound

But they won't stop, stop until they tear you down

Until they tear me down (In time, you will take me as I am)

Until they tear me down (As I am)

[Verse 2]

Wish for my destruction, that's why I'm so reluctant

Want me to pass the ball, but you're not on my team

You wanna cast a stone, we're so ready to fight

Got the nerve to ask how did I sleep

I heard you all through the night

Somebody tell me why, I know it's not just me

Over a billion voices don't think, just speak

You hate me when I'm up (Hey)

You love me when I'm down (Woo)

I'm so confused by the world (Hey)

[Chorus]

Hey, the world is so loud, loud, loud

It's so loud, loud, loud

It's like hearin' pins drop in the crowd

They won't stop until they goddamn tear you down

Man, the world is so loud, loud, loud

It's so loud, loud, loud

I try to drown 'em all out in my sound

But they won't stop, stop until they tear you down

Until they tear me down, hey, ooh, woo (In time, you will take me as I am)

Until they tear me down

Until they tear me down, until they tear me down (As I am)

Until they tear me down, until they tear me down

[Bridge]

Long ago, I swear

I couldn't hear a sound

I couldn't hear a sound

There's a little girl now

With a little old fortune (With a little old fortune)

Hoping this is true (Hoping this)

So take me down (Tear me down)

[Chorus]

Oh, the world is so loud (It's so loud), loud, loud

It's so loud (It's so loud), loud, loud

It's like hearin' pins drop in the crowd

They won't stop until they goddamn tear you down

Man, the world is so loud (It's so loud), loud, loud

It's so loud, loud, loud (Hey)

I try to drown 'em all out in my sound (I try to drown 'em all out)

But they won't stop, stop until they tear you down

(In time, you will take me as I am)

Until they tear you down, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (As I am)

Oh, you will take me as I am (In time, you will take me as I am)

As I (As I am)

The world is so loud
