Relays

Moving far too slow
Recreations of
Love we used to know
But you don’t have to be
On your own
Away from these eyes
Away from these eyes

I’ve been caught in a
Thousand-season storm
In every place there’s a
Face I’ve seen before

But I don’t want to run
And i don’t want to hide
As all of these days become
Stranger designs
But i don’t have to hold
The flame that I light
I’ll pass into your arms
To keep it alive
Just keep it alive

All these days they just
Let them/start to burn away
Endless pages of
Words I’ll never say

But honestly I’m fine
Running this torch
Away from these eyes
Away from these eyes
And honestly I’ve tried
To carry this sword
To bury this pride
To bury this pride

But I don’t want to run
And I don’t want to hide
As all of these days become
Stranger designs
But I don’t have to hold
The flame that I light
I’ll pass it into your arms
To keep it alive
Just keep it alive

All these races
I always try to win
Year’s I’ve wasted
On walls I’ve put you in
Losing patience
With every move I make
One step forwards
But two steps back again

I don’t have to run
And I don’t have to hide
As all of these days become
Stranger designs
And I don’t have to hold
The flame that I light
I’ll pass it into your arms
To keep it alive
Just keep it alive
