Run and break the chain I hope to get away some day To feel just what I want and to feel the hold you have on me Climbing up a wall I'm waiting for the weather to sway I'm feeling like a fool in a cage there's nothing left to say Looking at the past I try to push your words away I'm rising up above to my sunset where sky is gray Taken for a ride now I'm reaching out to take control I'm searching for the truth when I know that it won't lead the way Oh, I keep trying to run away From what you're saying Oh, I keep trying to run away But I stay standing Following a ghost in the distance of a brighter day It's swimming in my mind now it's building like a tidal wave Breaking down the walls that have kept me climbing up so high I feel the rays upon me and now the shadows run and hide Oh, I keep trying to run away From what you're saying Oh, I keep trying to run away But I stay standing Oh, I keep trying to run away From what you're saying Oh, I keep trying to run away
