Listening Lyrics by Tonight Alive

What Are You So Scared Of (Japanese Edition)

2011

(You listening? Are you listening?)
Your eyes are closed
You’re sleeping, are you dreaming?
Is this truth we know
Even the truth at all
We’re only breathing
Naive minds for naive lives
We don’t have nine lives
Open your eyes
The only chance you get
Is here tonight
We all have hearts that beat
You're nodding, but are you listening?
Your lips move
No one makes a sound
You listening?
Are you listening?
Our eyes they cannot see
They’re wasted on people just like me
I've been blind for too long
I thought I knew my right from wrong
But now it only seems letting myself down
Is it just in my dreams
You'll have to be true to yourself
Then you’ll see
But we all have hearts that beat
You're nodding, but are you listening?
Your lips move
No one makes a sound
You listening?
Are you listening?
We all have to believe
That it’s easier to dream, so
Your lips move
No one makes a sound
You listening?
Are you listening?
It’s a little bit of give
And a little bit of take
When you’re looking for the mark you want to make
It’s a little bit of give
And a little bit of take
Don’t be afraid no
Don’t be afraid no
It's just a part everyone gotta go through
Don’t be afraid no
Don’t be afraid no
We all have hearts that beat
You're nodding, but are you listening?
Your lips move
No one makes a sound
You listening? Are you listening?
We’ve all learnt to believe
That it’s easier to dream, so
Your lips move
No one makes a sound
You listening? Are you listening? [x3]
Are you, are you listening? [x2]
You listening?
Are you listening?
