Always There

I'm running away

I've got to get home

I'm lost in a crowd

But I'm still on my own

I'm looking ahead

So I'm staying behind

I'm not being cruel

I'm just being kind

I close my eyes

It's no surprise

I'm always there

Can't count the times

I've tried to hide

And found nowhere

I'm trying to lay low

But I keep getting high

My feet on the ground

Got my head in the sky

My eye on the future

That's stuck in the past

I find I can't lose

When I aim to come last

I realise

It's no surprise

That nothing's clear

That black is white

That day is night

And there is here

I'm right on the ball

But I'm missing the mark

I burn in the sun

I'm scared of the dark

Got an ivory tower

With a bird's eye view

Got plenty of time

But nothing to do

The best disguise

It's no surprise

Is disappear

Can't count the times

I've tried to hide

And found nowhere

I'm running away

I've got to get home

I'm lost in a crowd

But I'm still on my own

I'm looking ahead

So I'm staying behind

I'm not being cruel

I'm just being kind

I realise

It's no surprise

That nothing's clear

That black is white

That day is night

And there is here

The best disguise

It's no surprise

Is disappear

Can't count the times

I've tried to hide

And found nowhere

I close my eyes

It's no surprise

I'm always there

Can't count the times

I've tried to hide

And found nowhere

I realise

It's no surprise

That nothing's clear

That black is white

That day is night

And there is here

The best disguise

It's no surprise

Is disappear

Can't count the times

I've tried to hide

And found nowhere
