When nighttime falls
And shadows crawl
Does it always have to be
The way it was before
With me in bed
Feeling feelings that are dead
And a hurt that's stopping me
From living life instead
Who can say?
It's just easier that way
I'm still running
While learning how to stay
When nighttime falls
And my heart yawns
I wish you'd smile at me
The way you did before
My anxiety spreads
Feeling feelings with my head
And a fear that's stopping me
From living life instead
As I say
It's just easier this way
Why was I running
I should've jumped your train
Then nighttime falls
And memories call
I hope it'll be
The way it way it was before
My nervous head
Feeling feelings I don't dread
There's a spring pushing me
To live my life instead
Would you say
It's easier that way
Stop your running
And try for once to stay
