lyrics

I'm always on the run
from burning houses and setting suns
with a ghost in my passenger seat
headed east tonight

I'm always on the run
from haunted houses and haunted suns
I'm a kid that's breaking out of his own skin
like the first time that you realise you've been lied too
once again

I'm always on the road
I'm almost always stoned
I'm a fool that's breaking out of his own head
Like the first time that I realised I don't need you
nonononono noooooooooo

I'm always on the run
from haunted houses and haunted suns
I'm a kid that's breaking out
of his own skin.
Like the first time that you realise you have died.
