Ten Thousand Words Lyrics - Live, Vol. 4 - Avett Brothers

Ten thousand words swarm around my head 

Ten million more in books written beneath my bed 

I wrote or read them all when searchin' in the swarms 

Still can't find out how to hold my hands 

And I know you need me in the next room over 

But I am stuck in here all paralyzed 

For months I got myself in ruts 

Too much time spent in mirrors framed in yellow walls 

Ain't it like most people? I'm no different 

We love to talk on things we don't know about 

Ain't it like most people? I'm no different 

We love to talk on things we don't know about

NEW SONG: Taylor Swift - 'You Need To Calm Down' - LYRICS 

And everyone around me shakes their head in disbelief 

And says I'm too caught up 

They say young is good and old is fine 

And truth is cool but all that matters 

Is that you have your good times 

But their good times come with prices 

And I can't believe it when I hear the jokes they make 

At anyone's expense except their own 

Would they laugh if they knew who paid? 

Ain't it like most people? I'm no different 

We love to talk on things we don't know about 

Ain't it like most people? I'm no different 

We love to talk on things we don't know about 

Photos 

And after we are through ten years 

of making it to be the most of glorious debuts 

I'll come back home without my things 

'Cause the clothes I wore out there I will not wear 'round you 

And they'll be quick to point out our shortcomings 

And how the experts all have had their doubts 

Ain't it like most people? I'm no different 

We love to talk on things we don't know about
