[Verse 1]
I can still remember the words and what they meant
As we etched them with our fingers in years of wet cement
The days blurred into each other, though everything seemed clear
We cruised along at half speed, but then we shifted gears
[Pre-Chorus]
We ran like vampires from a thousand burning suns
But even then, we should have stayed
[Chorus]
But we ran away, now all my friends are gone
Maybe we've outgrown all the things that we once loved
Run away, but what are we running from?
A show of hands from those in this audience of one
[Post-Chorus]
Where have they gone?
[Verse 2]
Identities assume us as nine and five add up
Synchronizing watches to the seconds that we lost
I looked up and saw you, I know that you saw me
We froze but for a moment in empathy
[Pre-Chorus]
I brought down the sky for you, but all you did was shrug
You gave my emptiness a name
I can still remember the words and what they meant
As we etched them with our fingers in years of wet cement
The days blurred into each other, though everything seemed clear
We cruised along at half speed, but then we shifted gears
[Pre-Chorus]
We ran like vampires from a thousand burning suns
But even then, we should have stayed
[Chorus]
But we ran away, now all my friends are gone
Maybe we've outgrown all the things that we once loved
Run away, but what are we running from?
A show of hands from those in this audience of one
[Post-Chorus]
Where have they gone?
[Verse 2]
Identities assume us as nine and five add up
Synchronizing watches to the seconds that we lost
I looked up and saw you, I know that you saw me
We froze but for a moment in empathy
[Pre-Chorus]
I brought down the sky for you, but all you did was shrug
You gave my emptiness a name
