If I ran so far that my life can't follow me Would it keep the world from up and swallowing me There's so much to weigh me down that I can hardly breathe And I don't want to think about it But I don't want this pain to last and I'm fading fast If I didn't look back and I changed my name Would I find my new life exactly the same I'm looking at an empty future that I already blame And I don't want to think about it But I don't want this pain to last and I'm fading fast I've put it all behind me just to have it one day find me And now I'm just this far from gone And so I'm leaving here on every cent that I could borrow Lord only knows just where I'll be tomorrow And I don't want to think about it But I don't want this pain to last and I'm fading I don't want to think about it but I don't want this pain to last And I I'm fading fast yeah I'm fading fast
