Off you go, inside your mind again
Your legs must shake from the memories you chase ‘round your head
I beg you know, but there you go
To find a version of you that’s dead
I don’t know why I let myself bare the cuts every time
You shatter our lives, to chase what you can’t leave behind
Your body is here, but it is clear
You’re always searching for what
You can’t find
And you shut me out once more
I don’t know what you’re looking for
And you turn your back on me
I'm getting used to all the secrecy
Each time I watch you
The distance ‘tween us grows and grows
You may run in one place
But you keep up this chase!
(And he runs)
You must be tired running wild tryna change your past (and he runs)
You run the time out when you find out that your legs can’t last (and he runs)
You can’t escape it, you can’t change it, this race can’t be won
But still you always run
And just like that you go
To hide your heart deep down below
And you just choose to ignore
The brewing of our coming war
And you seem to find such ease
To leave while I fight desperately
While you're off in the stars
I'm nursing battle scars! (and he runs!)
Now aren't you tired running wild tryna chase your past? (and he runs!)
You'll run your mind out when you find out that your lungs can't last (and he runs!)
You cannot change it, or escape it, this race can't be won
And still you always
And you have no idea what you've put us through (now I'm so tired running wild tryna chase your past)
It doesn't take long to trace it back to you (my lungs, my legs, my mind, my heart won't last)
So you can run, and run, you'll run go run until you drop! (run run run till you drop-)
But for me? I'll finally stop
(And he runs)
You must be tired running wild tryna chase your past (and he runs and he runs and he runs!)
You'll run your mind out when you find out that your legs can't last (and he runs and he runs and he runs!)
You cannot change this, you must face it, your race can't be won
But still you always run
You run in circles jumping hurdles tryna turn back time (and he runs and he runs and he runs!)
And in your chase you will erase your place within my life (and he runs and he runs and he runs!)
So go and run now, chase the Sun down, my time's just begun (and he runs and he runs and he runs!)
While you would much rather run
So go and turn your back on the Sun
'Cause still you always
Run
