Run From Yourself lyrics

Run From Yourself (Lyrics)

Where do you go?
Where can you go?
When you run from reality.
It’s a form of insanity.

Out on the road.
Don’t know where to go.
You’re stuck in reality, insanity.
What can you know?

Run far from it all.
Get as far as you can.
No one you know.
No one you depend.

Mirror splash on the wall.
Swimming in the insanity.
Image distorts you small.
Can’t live with conformity.

Why do you run?
Why carry a gun?
Everyone left behind.
It chases your mind.

Reflection bears in the hall.
Ever since you were small.
Can’t leave it behind.
Everything will remind.

Out on the road.
Seeking out your reality.
It’s a heavy load.
Can’t live with conformity.

You’re the only one.
What good is your gun?
Hear everything smash —
Crash of mirror glass.

No one will see
In a lonely scene.
Out on the road.
Out on the road.

Words echo in here
before finally near,
A frozen horizon
And it’s setting you fast.
