lyrics

A therapist once told me that I’m clairvoyant
Maybe he just told me what I needed to hear
But I walk these streets I feel the pain and I smell the fear
Baby I don’t want to die out here

I search for hope in the ghosts that roam these streets
They tell me that “love is all you’ll ever have, son”
Sometimes I feel like I bit off more than I can chew
How can that be true when there’s nothing that I do?

We’re all just running from it
We don’t know what we’re doing here
We’re all just running from it
Because life is fear

I’m too old to change and I’m too young to want to
I make being idle a god damned art form and
I really want a release, I really need a release
But I’m not doing anything about it at all

People say “hey at least you’re not dying”
And I say “well it’s not for lack of trying.
But really though you’re just outright lying”
Cause what’s the difference between a house and a hearse?

We’re all just running from it
We don’t know what we’re doing here
We’re all just running from it
Because life is fear

We’re all just running from it
We don’t know what we’re doing here
We’re all just running from it
Because life is fear
