Lyrics

Running

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I only wanted the truth, looking into

No more feelings of doubt

Then someone showed me the root of all evil

When all the lights were out

Shallow sleep, just leaning

Am i leaving the game?

I must be dreaming lots of undercover

Dreams are always the same

When the nights close in

When the nights close . . .

Well it's another night i waste at the opera

With a permanent friend

I should have taken direction much sooner

Another night in the air

If the lights came on

If the lights came on

I'd switch myself, with someone else

Then i'd shake myself

Things start to happen when i . . .

Things start to happen when . . .

Things start . . .

Oh, i can see myself running

But i'm standing still

And i can hear myself screaming

But there's no sound

When i wake up crying life brings me down

But it's not worth losing, until it's found

Oh, i can see my way home, home

I close my eyes and i'm back by the ocean

My hair feels wet

I'm on the brink of a lifelong ambition

Whatever dream comes next

I'm the seat of a hearse and guess who's driving?

I'm with you all the way

I hear the step of a fool, who's coming

All night, never day

Then the lights come on

The the lights come on

I switch myself

With someone else

Then i shake myself

Things start to happen when i . . .

Things start to happen when . . .

Things start . . .

I can see myself running

But i'm standing still

I can hear myself screaming

But there's no sound

When i wake up crying life brings me down

No it's not worth losing, until it's found

Oh, i can see my way home

I'm at a house, all the windows are broken

It's where i once used to live

I must be losing all my undercover

Dreaming always the same

I can see myself running

. . . still

. . . see myself running

I switch myself

. . . running (repeat)
