Lyrics
You draw a sketch of yourself up in the sky
You create an image of yourself in the sky
Hand it to me with a look of defeat in your eye
You hand me the sketch with a defeated expression
Don't concern myself with how your portrayed
I don't bother with how you're depicted
I gravitate to the ones where you're looking away
I'm drawn to representations where you're avoiding direct gaze
So messed up on the feeling that you'll never change
You're deeply affected by a feeling of never improving
I don't hesitate but I don't want to say what you need
I'm willing but hesitant to articulate what you require
'Cause when you stop you'll find out
When you pause or cease, you'll discover
What you're running from, running from now
The source of what you're escaping from presently
When you stop you'll find out
When you pause or cease, you'll discover
What you're running from, running from now
The source of what you're escaping from presently
Can't keep up with keeping up with the time
I can't match the pace of the passing time
The loss of a light
A sense of loss, maybe of guidance or direction
The trials of trying to survive
The difficulties in attempting to stay alive
And I know that the pain that you feel is your own
I understand your pain is your own
And there's nothing to say
There's nothing to verbalize
But I wish I could take it away
I wish I could alleviate it somehow
When you stop you'll find out
When you pause or cease, you'll discover
What you're running from, running from now
The source of what you're escaping from presently
When you stop you'll find out
When you pause or cease, you'll discover
What you're running from, running from now
The source of what you're escaping from presently
You say you feel
You express a lack of belief in anything
You don't believe in anything
Your beliefs hold no significance to you
And it doesn't matter anyway
You feel it's inconsequential
You say you feel there's no one listening
You feel unheard, like no one is paying attention
I'm hearing that a lot these days
I've been hearing that sentiment frequently lately
When you stop you'll find out
When you pause or cease, you'll discover
What you're running from, running from now
The source of what you're escaping from presently
When you stop you'll find out
When you pause or cease, you'll discover
What you're running from, running from now
The source of what you're escaping from presently
When you stop you'll find out
When you pause or cease, you'll discover
What you're running from, running from now
The source of what you're escaping from presently
Running from, running from now
Continuously avoiding or fleeing from
Running from, running from now
-When you stop
When you pause or cease
Running from, running from
Continuously avoiding or fleeing from
