I always run from all the things that I’ve done
The consequences of my actions never leave me alone
I try to get a hold of my life
But in the end the vicious circle, the cycle of time
I could run, I could hide, or live my life in disguise
Or I could face all the lies that overrun my mind
I can’t see straight because I’m blinded by the messes I’ve made
I’m always stuck in the same place and that’s what’s killing me
I know I have to change something
I’m always searching for what I had before
I know there’s so much more than this
In this world, we all suffer
Searching for the answers to light the way
But we are lost in the routine
Getting sick of trying to live in a better place
And I keep digging my own grave to keep me safe
From everyone else, but mostly myself
I’ll do it all for myself
I’ve been alone long enough to realize
You can’t run for long before you’re paralyzed
I could run, I could hide, or live my life in disguise
Or I could face all the lies that overrun my mind
I can’t see straight because I’m blinded by the messes I’ve made
I’m always stuck in the same place and that’s what’s killing me
I can’t run, I can’t hide, or live my life in disguise
I need to face all the lies that I have told to get by
I fill my mind with these thoughts as I look to the sky
I’ll let the silence up above drown out all of my dishonesty
