[Verse 1] You change your number Change your hair Your name Your town Call it freedom Every time you let someone down New excuse in your pocket Like a ticket out of state Always halfway home Always showing up too late [Chorus] You’re the runner Sprinting from the mirror again Blaming weather For the storm that’s in your hands Every promise You just drop it where you stand You’re the runner But you’re running in the same old sand [Verse 2] You ghost on birthdays Show up drunk at funerals Tell the same sad story Like it’s something beautiful Say you’re scared of cages But you built this one yourself Painting exits On the walls for someone else [Chorus] You’re the runner Sprinting from the mirror again Blaming weather For the storm that’s in your hands Every promise You just drop it where you stand You’re the runner But you’re running in the same old sand [Bridge] How long can you loop this track (keep on, keep on) Till the past runs Circles back? All those faces All those calls They’re not chasing you at all It’s you [Chorus] You’re the runner Sprinting from the mirror again Blaming weather For the storm that’s in your hands Every promise You just drop it where you stand You’re the runner And you’re running Out of second chance
