No More Running Away

Ben Taylor


Across the sunrise 
And covered by windows and blinds 
Away from wandering eyes as they struggle for something to see 
Hiding, don't want anybody to find them and try to deprive them 
Of all of those magical breaths that they breathe. 

Around the corner and up the elevator a floor 
Between the smoke and the movement she uses the music to see 
Hidden, but living and breathing, a lesson, a vision, 
if only they'd listen they'd see 

There'd be no more running away 
And no more missing that midnight train 
They go so much faster now days 
And good thing cause you need to be home before light 
It won't be easy at first but you'll have to get used to it sometime
It's only for the rest of your life. 

We've come to help you decide 
How to spend the rest of your days and nights 
We understand that you've tried it before and it froze you alive 
And if you could have only been free you'd have listened to reason 
Before you had wasted our time 

Well it's going to be different this time 

There'll be no more running away 
No more missing that midnight train 
They go so much faster now days 
And good thing cause you need to be home before light 
It won't be easy at first but you'RE BOUND to get used to it sometime 
It's only for the rest of your life
Only for the rest of your life
