CAN’T OUTRUN IT
[Intro]
Yeah
I’ve been keeping busy
Guess that didn’t work
[Verse 1]
New place, new faces, same old nights
Everybody says I’m doing just fine
Got a full tank and nowhere to be
Still end up driving down the same old street
I keep my phone on, keep my plans made
Keep finding reasons I should stay awake
Funny how the second I get back home
Everything I ran from is waiting alone
[Pre-Chorus]
I thought if I kept moving
I’d leave it all behind
But every road I’m taking
Leads me back to my mind
[Chorus]
I can’t outrun it, outrun it
No matter how far I go
I keep on running, running
But I’m right where I was before
New nights, new lights
Same thoughts when I’m alone
I can’t outrun it, outrun it
Guess it’s time I let it show
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, wherever I go
Oh-oh, it follows me home
[Verse 2]
I’ve been saying yes when I wanna say no
Staying out late just to keep things going
Everybody’s laughing, everybody’s good
I’m having the time that I thought I would
Then the ride home gets a little too quiet
Radio’s up, but I can’t hide behind it
I don’t know what I thought I’d find
But I can’t keep leaving myself behind
[Pre-Chorus]
I thought if I kept moving
I’d leave it all behind
But every road I’m taking
Leads me back to my mind
[Chorus]
I can’t outrun it, outrun it
No matter how far I go
I keep on running, running
But I’m right where I was before
New nights, new lights
Same thoughts when I’m alone
I can’t outrun it, outrun it
Guess it’s time I let it show
[Bridge: Beat Switch, Half-Time]
Maybe I don’t need another place
Another name I won’t remember
Maybe I should sit with what remains
Instead of trying to outrun the pressure
[Final Chorus: Full Production]
I can’t outrun it, outrun it
No matter how far I go
I keep on running, running
Now I’m done with running from my own
New nights, new lights
I don’t need them anymore
I can’t outrun it, outrun it
I don’t wanna run no more
[Outro]
I’ve been everywhere
Still ended up right here
Maybe that’s the point
Maybe now I hear
