lyrics

is this the only pace that you can carry on
looked like you’d keep up, now like you don’t
well I don’t know, their silhouettes are blurring ‘round me
don’t cry don’t try to make a scene, they’re onto you

just say goodbye, you
are the one
that never fired
towards the sun

it’s time to run now

with all this energy you could blow all this snow
pull all your secrets out of your robe
so now before we turn our backs and chase who went away
we’ll lay waste to every single one who wants to stay

carry on, ‘cause
I don’t know
where we might end up
if we’ll just go

it’s time to run now

so start the pyre
and stay close
no desire
to return

seconds always try to cut the line
but I don’t want to, another time
the more you know the more they make you think that you deserve
just climb across the line they’ve drawn
escape their maw now

it’s time to run now
