Were You Listening by Earthquake Lights Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Have my ears
Given up?
Have they been
Through enough?

Won't you give it a rest?
It's too loud

[Verse 2]
You're so sure of it
But if only you knew
Every subtlety
You're oblivious to
Don't you understand
How much more you could be

[Chorus]
I was wondering

Did you notice?
Were you listening?
Can't you hear?
[Verse 3]
Have my eyes
Got it right?
Did you sail out of sight?

If you ever come back
It's too soon

[Verse 4]
You're so sure of it
But I wish you could see
All the damage that
You've been doing to me

Tell the rest of us
What you're doing this for

[Chorus]
I was wondering

Did you notice?
Were you listening?
Can't you hear?

[Refrain]
My ears
Have had enough
Sound has
Filled them up
My eyes
Have seen enough
Better
Keep them shut
