(Intro / Hook)
Running away from the life I knew (uh-huh)
Take more till I pass out ain’t nothing new (okay)
You don’t know me but you’ve found a clue (nu-uh)
If only you knew how I feel about you (I don’t)
But you’re worried about my past not what’s new (all new)
(Verse 1)
Every night feels like the same rerun
Sun comes up but I still don’t feel one
You say you’re here but you’re halfway gone
Trying to fix me after all I’ve done
I’ve been hiding every scar with a smile
Saying “I’ll be okay” just to buy me a while
You read old pages, never read today
Wonder why my soul keeps drifting away
(Pre-Chorus)
You see the smoke but never ask the flame
Call me by my sins instead of my name
I keep my heart behind a locked-up door
’Cause every time I opened it, I lost more
(Hook)
Running away from the life I knew (uh-huh)
Take more till I pass out ain’t nothing new (okay)
You don’t know me but you’ve found a clue (nu-uh)
If only you knew how I feel about you (I don’t)
But you’re worried about my past not what’s new (all new)
(Verse 2)
Late-night drives with the radio loud
Trying to disappear inside the crowd
Everybody thinks they know my name
Nobody knows why I changed
You keep asking why I built these walls
Never ask who watched me fall
I’m still trying just to find my peace
Even if it’s only temporary relief
(Bridge)
Maybe one day you’ll see what I hide
The war that I keep bottled up inside
Till then I’ll wear this poker face
Trying to outrun yesterday
(Final Hook / Outro)
Running away from the life I knew (uh-huh)
Take more till I pass out ain’t nothing new (okay)
You don’t know me but you’ve found a clue (nu-uh)
If only you knew how I feel about you (I don’t)
But you’re worried about my past not what’s new (all new)
