Running too long

Another morning another lie You paint your face but the mirror sighs The coffee's cold the thrill is gone You've been running too long And all the stories that you tell They're just echoes in a shell You're holding on to something real But you're losing how to feel And the world keeps spinning But you're standing still Chasing shadows on the wall Like you always will The world keeps spinning But you're standing still You keep waiting for a sign But it's never real You walk the streets in a restless daze Every step just another phase The lights blur by they don't mean a thing Just a song that you can't sing And all the faces that you meet They're just strangers in a beat You're reaching out for something new But it's slipping right through you And the world keeps spinning But you're standing still Chasing shadows on the wall Like you always will The world keeps spinning But you're standing still You keep waiting for a sign But it's never real And every night you close your eyes Trying to find a way to rise But the dreams are just the same Playing that endless game And the world keeps spinning But you're standing still Chasing shadows on the wall Like you always will The world keeps spinning But you're standing still You keep waiting for a sign But it's never real No, it's never real
