Turn Your Back and Run

I'm growing partial
To detesting a disease in me
It's head swells
Into beautiful dependency
With teeth that feed on flesh
And everything I swear I am not
A small price to bleed
And give you everything that you want

Dancing with the spirit
Giving heart to pump a dirty vein
Leaving with a scar
A uniform to bruise a perfect stain
Anything you hate will be
The root of everything you breathe
Breathing in the dirt
Will leave you hating all that you conceive

I try to push myself up
I'm breaking from the inside
I'm slipping through the cracks and
I try to push it out of mind
Switch, switch
You've got to turn your back and run
Switch, switch
You've got to turn your back and run
Ohh

To push it out is just a patch
To fix a gaping wound
A brass tack to pin a hair
And heal a broken tomb
I never thought I'd be the one
To bring it down to this
My last thought
Is through a statement and a shattered fist

Face down, fearless, light me up, end this
Face down, fearless, light me up, end this

I try to push myself up
I'm breaking from the inside
I'm slipping through the cracks and
I try to push it out of mind
Switch, switch
You've got to turn your back and run
Switch, switch
You've got to turn your back and run
Ohh

Microns from the flame head
Beat my hands to proceed nothing
Staring into souls with blind eyes
Taking the throne in my tiny hand
And chase it with the pain
And chase it with the pain
And chase it with the pain
You won't have life until you run
You got to give it all away

I try to push myself up
I'm breaking from the inside
I'm slipping through the cracks and
I try to push it out of mind
Switch, switch
You've got to turn your back and run
Switch, switch
You've got to turn your back and run
