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 gone 
Maybe we’ve outgrown all the things that we once loved 
Runaway 
But 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 
And 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 shrug 
You gave my emptiness a name 
 
But you ranaway 
Now all my friends gone 
Maybe we’ve outgrown all the things that we once loved 
Runaway 
But what are we running from ? 
A show of hands from those in this audience of one 
Where have they gone ? 
 
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 
 
We ran away 
Now all my friends gone 
Maybe we’ve outgrown all the things that we once loved 
Runaway 
But what are we running from ? 
A show of hands from those in this audience of one 
Where have they gone ?
