I can still remember, the words and what they meant
As we etched them with our fingers, in years of wet cement
The days blurred into each other, though everything seemed clear
We cruised along at half speed
But then we shifted gears
WE RAN LIKE VAMPIRES FROM A THOUSAND BURNING SUNS,
BUT EVEN THEN WE SHOULD HAVE STAYED
BUT WE RAN AWAY
NOW ALL MY FRIENDS ARE GONE,
MAYBE WE'VE OUTGROWN ALL THE THING THAT WE ONCE LOVED
RUNAWAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY YYYYYYYY
WHAT ARE WE RUNNING FROM?
A show of hands from those in this audience of one
Where have they gone?
Identities assume us
As nine and five add up
Synchronizing watches
To the seconds that we lost
I looked up and saw you
I know that you saw me
We froze but for a moment
IN EMPATHY
I BROUGHT DOWN THE SKY FOR YOU, BUT ALL YOU DID WAS A SHRUG
YOU GAVE MY EMPTINESS A NAME
BUT YOU RAN AWAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
NOW ALL MY FRIENDS ARE GONE
MAYBE WE'VE OUTGROWN ALL THE THING THAT WE ONCE LOVED
RUNAWAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
WHAT ARE WE RUNNING FROM?
A SHOW OF HANDS IN THIS AUDIENCE OF ONE
WHAT HAVE THEY DONE?
WE'RE ALL OKAY, UNTIL THE DAY WE'RE NOT
THE SURFACE SHINES, WHILE THE INSIDE ROTS
WE RACED THE SUNSET AND WE ALMOST WON
WE SLAMMED THE BRAKES, BUT THE WHEELS WENT ON
TA TA ATAARAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAA
BEST MOTHERFUCKING GROUP IN THE MOTHERFUCKING WORLD
