Run Away

Summer's over
The sun is getting colder
Like the mornings that are covered
In grays that make them slower
The ocean isn't far
It gets closer every day
Creeping slowly inward
The water's heard a lot of what I say
Does it get jealous
Of the river in the north
Are they talking at the delta
Spilling stories at the bay
Seeping down and getting rooted
All spread out and all diluted
All my notebooks are polluted
They keep asking
"Did I even run away?"
Did I even run away

The sky is lower
I have underexposure
To the sun that's glazing over
Like my eyes that seem to close more often
Now that looking forward's a waste
Cause I keep going back in time and realizing
There's way too many things I didn't say
Throw the stones
Or throw the page away
Throw my energy at something
Throw the current out of place
But i'll never make it stop
So i'll keep moving
Catch my breath that I keep losing on the way
I'll catch it on the waves
I'll catch it on the waves
Catch it on the waves
(Catch it on the waves)

Waiting endlessly
Painful slow through lessons
Learning only what keeps falling on me
Waiting for "I'm blind but now I see"
If all this seeing
Could reach out through the years and words and
Working on and through to say
"There's way too many things that didn't change"
Watch the sky and the dirt
And how they cry and how they hurt
When all this life's so unalert
To what time hides under its shirt
Can't say a word
Can't explain the way to learn
Just keeps holding close a crying baby fighting
Why we're fitting in so strange
And we're dying to name
Every color every shape

Watch the sun go down
Looks just like it did
In another town
No use trying to hide from it

Watch the sun go down
(Catch a current catch a cause to finally unpause i'm)
Looks just like it did
(Calling coward on myself for waiting way too long)
In another town
(Flow through days just like I flow through inner monologues i'll)
No use trying to hide from it
(Never say it maybe play it if it's way too strong)

Watch the sun go down
(There it goes it gets gigantic going going gone)
Looks just like it did
(Try to slow down now it's frantic and still seeming wrong)
In another town
(Let it grow until it seems like it's been all along)
No use trying to hide from it
(Never say it maybe play it if it's way too strong)
