Run My Mouth Lyrics
All my days, they end too slow
And I wonder where I've left to go
Anyway, there's no such thing as company
I've discovered all I've got to do
What is it that gets you through
Another day when I'm not there
Wish we could be more open
I don't have time to think of how you are
All my days, they end too slow
And I wonder where I've left to go
And besides, I've got no one but myself to blame
I discovered all I've got to do
Is run my mouth off
When I dream, it's not of you
Something in your voice that I can't hear
But some company it is
Because I feel so close when I wake
And in fifty years no one will care
That I was once there
All my days, they end too slow
And I wonder where I've left to go
Anyway, there's no such thing as company
I've discovered all I've got to do
Is run my mouth off
Never wanted time for looking back
For a moment I look down and wander
And of what's to come today
Girl, I wonder where you are
All my days, they end too slow
And I wonder where I've left to go
And besides, I've got no one but myself to blame
I discovered all I've got to do
Is run my mouth off
And I wonder where I've left to go
Anyway, there's no such thing as company
I've discovered all I've got to do
Another day when I'm not there
Wish we could be more open
I don't have time to think of how you are
And I wonder where I've left to go
And besides, I've got no one but myself to blame
I discovered all I've got to do
Is run my mouth off
Something in your voice that I can't hear
But some company it is
Because I feel so close when I wake
And in fifty years no one will care
That I was once there
And I wonder where I've left to go
Anyway, there's no such thing as company
I've discovered all I've got to do
Is run my mouth off
For a moment I look down and wander
And of what's to come today
Girl, I wonder where you are
And I wonder where I've left to go
And besides, I've got no one but myself to blame
I discovered all I've got to do
Is run my mouth off

For me, this song is about someone who is in a relationship, but they are too preoccupied with more important things to be worrying about what the other person is up to.
"Wish we could be more open I don't have time to think of how you are"
The person would like to be committed to the relationship, because they obviously care about the other person, but they honestly don't have the other person in mind all the time and even though they would like to care about the relationship and the person more, they don't and it's frustrating because they feel they are stuck.
"When I dream, it's not of you Something in your voice that I can't hear"
This song at is amazing so its a shocker no one has comented on it well not really but...its a beatiful song about (in my opinion) How he likes somone or liked someone and now its akward between them becasue they are not seeing eachother and their friendship is broken so when he says "What is it that gets you through Another day when I'm not there" Cause hes not sure hwo he gets through a day without her just as a friend. And they only way he can get over it is by taklign about it "Run my mouth off" But hes smart and realistic and does realize he wont remeber it later "And in fifty years no one will care" but knows he just has to get it off now. Amazing song and i know theres more to it but thats just the core in my opinionbut its breatiufl
i am pretty shocked too.. such an awesome song! to me this song seems to be about him talking to a girl on the phone.
The cello and violin are beautiful.
I think this song is about a long distance relationship but spammusibi's interpretation makes sense aswell.
From my perspective...
this is a heartbreaking song about a man who is haunted by this past lover that he can't let go. [Anyway, there's no such thing as company] He feels he is doomed to be alone forever. [And in fifty years no one will care that I was once there] He punishes himself and feels helpless, suggesting that he's given up on believing that she (or anyone else, for that matter) still cares. [When I dream, it's not of you/Never wanted time for looking back] It's obvious that he tries to fight all of these thoughts, but still they are unavoidable and the only way he can cope with it is to occupy himself with these lies.
