Running Lyrics

I followed you again this morning
I was close enough to feel you near
Pretending everyone could see me
Just slip away and disappear

They're right behind
They're so inclined
They're all aligned
We're undermined
As good as blind
I'm out of time
So hard to find
So well-defined
They're all aligned
They're intertwined
We're undermined
They're so inclined
We're right behind
So hard to find
As good as blind
I'm out of time

I'm running out of places I can hide from this
I'm running out of places I can hide from this
I'm running out of places I can hide from this
I'm running out of places I can hide from this

I had a friend, I think you knew me
I couldn't seem to make you see
I know they're watching me and falling
I know I'll never get away

I'm running out of places I can hide from this
I'm running out of places I can hide from this
I'm running out of places I can hide from this
I'm running out of places I can hide from this

I'm running out of places I can hide from this
I'm running out of places I can hide from this
I'm running out of places I can hide from this
I'm running out of places I can hide from this

I'm running out, I'm running out, I'm running out, I'm running out
I'm running out, I'm running out, I'm running out, I'm running out
I'm running out, I'm running out, I'm running out, I'm running out
I'm running out, I'm running out, I'm running out, I'm running out

I'll never get away
I'll never get away
I'll never get away

I'm running out of places I can hide from this

I'm running out, I'm running out, I'm running out, I'm running out
I'm running out, I'm running out, I'm running out, I'm running out
I'm running out, I'm running out, I'm running out, I'm running out

I'll never get away
I'll never get away
I'll never get away

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think it's about him being stalked by obsessed fans.

To me it is about running away from what you fear (be it depression, responsibility, your work, your life, someone in particular). However, no matter how hard you 'run' you eventually must face that fear
