I'm trying so hard to be someone I like
Take my mistakes and say, "Live and let die"
And doing these things to keep my faith alive
I don't wanna be here no more
And fighting and spiraling, dominoes fall
Beat myself up 'cause it's all I've been taught
The lies of a child, I'm still counting them up
Praying that I can close the door

So why would I die when I still haven't tried
To roll back those clocks to a simpler life
And why every time, when I take someone's heart
Tend to my own and leave theirs in the dark
It's Saturday night, don't know who I've become
When things get too good, why do I jump the gun?
I'm into the woods just a wolf on the run
What have I been running from?

And I hate myself and for not giving it time
Learning some patience and drawing the line
I burnt all the bridges and curved up my spine
Still I couldn't make myself cry
I've got a light and it holds me
All of the pain it just showed me
That everything good happens slowly
All because I fell on my knees

So why would I die when I still haven't tried
To roll back those clocks to a simpler life
And why every time, when I take someone's heart
Tend to my own and leave theirs in the dark
It's Saturday night, don't know who I've become
When things get too good, why do I jump the gun?
I'm into the woods just a wolf on the run
What have I been running from?

I'm stuck with myself, created my own hell
I'm a shell of a man and I'm wishing him well
But I still have hope that someday I could change
And fix all of my problems I put on my plate
(But they just keep breaking me down, whoa)

So why would I die when I still haven't tried
To roll back those clocks to a simpler life
And why every time, when I take someone's heart
Tend to my own and leave theirs in the dark
It's Saturday night, don't know who I've become
When things get too good, why do I jump the gun?
I'm into the woods just a wolf on the run
What have I been running from?

What have I been running from?
