Run From It All

Lyrics

Verse 1
Shoes by the door
Phone on the floor still buzzing
Keys in my hand
Heart in my throat
Just rushing
Street names smear
Through the window of a night bus humming
Leaving that room
Leaving that ghost still coming

Chorus
I keep running from it all
From the walls
From the calls
From the mirror on the hall
I keep running from it all
Till the past falls back and the echoes get small
(keep running, keep running)
I keep running from it all
From your voice
From the choice
From the writing on the wall
If it catches me
I’ll crawl
So I keep running
Running from it all

Verse 2
Cash in a jar
Tipped on a bar in a strange town
Name that I use
Is a loose thread I cut now
Clock hands spin
But the same old sins still chase me
Every new sky
Got the same dark eyes that face me

Chorus
I keep running from it all
From the plans
From the bands
From the pictures in the hall
I keep running from it all
Till the guilt grows quiet and the memories fall
(keep running, don’t look back)
I keep running from it all
From your laugh
From the crash
From the night I dropped the ball
If it finds me
I might stall
So I keep running
Running from it all

Bridge
Maybe I’m a ghost
Haunting every place I leave
Maybe what I fear
Is the part I can’t unsee
Feet hit ground
But I’m still in the same freefall
Every mile I go
I’m just running
Running from it all

Chorus
I keep running from it all
From the walls
From the calls
From the mirror on the hall
I keep running from it all
Till the past falls back and the echoes get small
(keep running, keep running)
I keep running from it all
From your voice
From the choice
From the writing on the wall
If it catches me
I’ll crawl
So I keep running
Running from it all
