[Verse 1]
You start working with the same device
The narrative is breaking down again
You're standing down the same old asking price
The cards are drawn the fires getting warm

[Pre-Chorus]
All works and play there's nothing left to say
They wouldn't want it any other way

[Chorus]
Running fast when the lights are fading
We make the same mistakes we know we have to face
Someday the fires will keep on burning
But today run away never look behind

[Verse 2]
The time it takes to walk home alone
The pleasure stops keeps weakness
From the top of your head
Servants blockade informants keep the peace
The pleasure stops why does it have to stop

[Pre-Chorus]
All works and play there's nothing left to say
They wouldn't want it any other way
[Chorus]
Running fast when the lights are fading
We make the same mistakes we know we have to face
Someday the fires will keep on burning
But today run away never look behind

[Bridge]
The same old pictures running over again
The same old pictures running over again

[Chorus]
Running fast when the lights are fading
We make the same mistakes we know we have to face
Someday the fires will keep on burning
But today run away never look behind
(We make, we make the same mistakes)
But today run away never look behind
(We make, we make the same mistakes)
But today run away never look behind
