No More Running

lyrics

Confession
I carry poison
I just won’t share it
It’s killing me

I just thought you should know
No more running
I just thought you should know
No more running

My Mom told me
All the bad things, relax
Just let it roll of your back
Instead, I held onto it
Made it part of the act
Mining my traumas like their rare earth metals
Hoping once they’re out I’ll feel settled
No

I just thought you should know
No more running
I just thought you should know
No more running

Chased, haunted
Better roll up and guzzle
Pop and sniff
And Scratch
Break your back
Bounce
In the bank counting
Blasting Eek-A-Mouse
Seeing who’ll pounce

Confession
I carry poison
I just won’t share it
It’s killing me

I just thought you should know
No more running
I just thought you should know
No more running
No more running
No more running
No more running
No more running
