You heard me softly singing but what did I say?

You felt your ears were ringing, but what does that say?



Not a whole lot matters,

When your whole world shatters,

Not a whole lot matters.



We've fallen on our faces so many times,

We've faked those social graces,

Most of our lives.



Not a whole lot matters

When your whole world shatters,

Not a whole lot matters.



[Chorus:]

Running out of time, running out of time, out of my mind,

And I can't find a way to tell you.

Running out of time, running out of time, out of my mind,

And I cant find a way to tell you.



To trust sometimes is harder than anything,

We think we've gotten better,

But we're not listening.



Not a whole lot matters, 

When your whole world shatters,

Not a whole lot matters.



[Chorus]



When time stands so still,

This so called life has lost its thrill.

Take me home.

Take me home.



[Chorus]



Not whole lot matters,

When your whole world shatters.

Not a whole lot matters.
