Their stares beat into my back
Like the heat of the sun
Now that I'm wearing all black
Like burning the books and leaves
We didn't need them to teach
Us how to live
Like in the passenger seat
Under your siege I bleed
From the words that you speak
Their rules didn't run our world
Because they couldn't catch up
We grabbed our bags and we ran
Never had a plan
Where to eat, sleep, or where to land
Because their rules didn't run our world
And that was enough for us
I've been running, and running, and running
Myself around
Running, and running, and running
To make you proud
Running, and running, and running
Into the ground
To get back to you
I'm running for you
Yeah, their rules didn't run our world
Because they couldn't catch up
We grabbed our bags and we ran
Never had a plan
Where to eat, sleep, or where to land
Because their rules didn't run our world
And that was enough for us
At our speed
We can see
The beauty in all of these
Hiccups that trip them up
Because they get stuck on such small bumps
But at our speed
We can see
That once the smokes leaves with the breeze
It's just you
And it's just me
Yeah, their rules didn't run our world
Because they couldn't catch up
We grabbed our bags and we ran
Never had a plan
Where to eat, sleep, or where to land
Because their rules didn't run our world
And that was enough for us
I've been running, running
Myself around
I've been running, running
To make you proud
I've been running, running
Into the ground
To get to you
I've been running, running
Myself around
I've been running, running
To make you proud
I've been running, running
Into the ground
To get to you
I've been running, running (At our speed we can see)
Myself around (The beauty in all of these)
I've been running, running (Hiccups that trip them up)
To make you proud (Because they get stuck on such small bumps)
I've been running, running (But at our speed we can see)
Into the ground (That once the smoke leaves with the breeze)
To get to you (It's just you)
And it's just me
I've been running, running
Myself around
I've been running, running
To make you proud
I've been running, running
Into the ground
To get to you
I'm running for you
