[Verse 1]
Tandy with the good hand, stutters when she's speaking
Johnny drives a big rig, Johnny's not sleeping
Sweet Geraldine turned 80 in the spring
But her nerves won't quit, she worries about everything
Sara's on a work trip crying at a hotel
Jessie's doing backflips, Molly's doing so well
Joey's got a new girl, Emily moved away
And the world's on fire
The whole time we're trying to put out the flame
[Pre-Chorus]
Life, it gets louder now
Can't stop it, won't slow down
Lost in this, all I can do
Is keep my eyes on you
[Chorus]
I know the world turns around
I know the lights are gonna go out
But until they do, I've got nothing to lose
I keep my eyes on you, I
I keep my eyes on you
[Verse 3]
Tommy took a freefall, didn't pull the ripcord
Gathered at the funeral, everybody looked bored
Amanda had a baby, Katie, she lost a few
And when the smoke gets thick
I can't help it but hear tick, tick, boom
Tandy with the good hand, stutters when she's speaking
Johnny drives a big rig, Johnny's not sleeping
Sweet Geraldine turned 80 in the spring
But her nerves won't quit, she worries about everything
Sara's on a work trip crying at a hotel
Jessie's doing backflips, Molly's doing so well
Joey's got a new girl, Emily moved away
And the world's on fire
The whole time we're trying to put out the flame
[Pre-Chorus]
Life, it gets louder now
Can't stop it, won't slow down
Lost in this, all I can do
Is keep my eyes on you
[Chorus]
I know the world turns around
I know the lights are gonna go out
But until they do, I've got nothing to lose
I keep my eyes on you, I
I keep my eyes on you
[Verse 3]
Tommy took a freefall, didn't pull the ripcord
Gathered at the funeral, everybody looked bored
Amanda had a baby, Katie, she lost a few
And when the smoke gets thick
I can't help it but hear tick, tick, boom
