[Intro – harsh whisper] You wake up running, but you're still in bed. Close your eyes, the race stays in your head. [Verse 1] Hallways made of half-truth walls, every step, the ceiling falls. You change the room, you change your name, but every corner feels the same. Beneath the blanket, under skin, you shove the memories back again. You call it past, you call it gone, but shadows don't know how to move on. [Pre-Chorus] You stitch your mask, you paint your face, but what you hide still keeps the pace. [Chorus] You chase the dark, you chase the blame, you run from fire, but you lit the flame. You chase the voice that knows your scar, but every mile is who you are. You chase, you chase, till your lungs misbehave, but truth don't run. It waits where you're made. [Verse 2] You switch the city, change the bed, drink the noise inside your head. You talk in jokes, you play it light, but your pulse drums louder every night. You lock the door, you kill the light, you swear you're safe if you're polite. But in the quiet, under breath, your name still trembles under death. [Pre-Chorus 2] You bury deep, you twist the knife, but buried things still learn your life. [Drum Solo – frantic toms, heartbeat rhythm] (run… run… run…) [Final Chorus] You chase the dark, you chase the blame, you run from fire, but you nursed the flame. You chase the eyes that see your scar, but every road returns this far. You chase, you chase, till your lies misbehave, but truth just sits inside your veins. [Outro] Stop running. Turn around. No one's there, but you and what you've found.
