Haven’t got a hope
Haven’t got a prayer to hear me
Can’t say that I know what
Or why am I drifting away

Anxious forces from above
Keep on asking me
How do you sit still?
How do you sit still?
(no more no more no more?)

There was a time
When you shared a hope with me
And all these colours must be fading
Cause I’m finding it hard to see

So follow me, my love
Cause I’ve been wondering
How do you sit still?
How do you sit still?

Everybody knows
Someone’s going to fall
Well, you decide just how badly
I don’t wanna watch
Turn the other way
It all goes bad

How do you sit still?
How do you sit still?
