Lyrics

    I woke up today
    To find myself in another place
    With a trail of my footprints
    From where I ran away
    Seems everything I heard just might be true
    And you know me
    (Well you think you do)
    Sometimes, I have everything—
    Yet I wish I felt something
    
    Do you know how far this has gone?
    Just how damaged have I become?
    When I think I can overcome
    It runs even deeper
    
    In a dream I’m a different me
    With a perfect you
    We fit perfectly
    And for once in my life I feel complete—
    And I still want to ruin it
    Afraid to look
    As clear as day
    This plan has long been underway
    I hear them call
    I cannot stay
    The voice inviting me away
    
    Do you know how far this has gone?
    Just how damaged have I become?
    When I think I can overcome
    It runs even deeper
    Everything that matters is gone
    All the hands of hope have withdrawn
    Could you try to help me hang on
    It runs…
    
    I’m straight
    I won’t crack
    On my way
    And I can’t turn back
    I’m okay
    I’m on track
    On my way
    And I can’t turn back
    I stayed
    On this track
    Gone too far
    And I can’t come back
    I stayed
    On this track
    Lost my way
    Can’t come back
