I'll always be the one chasing light to a dream
Holding on to the ones that have always been close to me
I can say what they want me to say
But I won't do what they want me to do
Slow it down
Write it out
Slow it down
Write it out
I'll always be two steps behind the mean
Trying to make sense of "what's not what it seems."
I can say what I wanted to say
But I could never do what I wanted to do
Slow it down
Write it out
Slow it down
Write it out
I won't get sleep until sleep gets me
I won't cheat death until death cheats me
So come on just hum along, hum along to the song now
Let it run, let it run down your spine now
I won't get sleep until sleep gets me
I won't cheat death until death cheats me
I'll always be the one chasing light to a dream
Holding on to the ones that have always been close to me
I can say what they want me to say
But I won't do what they want me to do
