[Verse 1]
Why don't I show myself to myself enough?
Why let all emotions control at all costs
Am I even feelin' what I thought I've felt?
Who I've dreamt of bein' is six feet underground
[Chorus]
Runnin' from who I thought I was
Runnin' from who I thought you'd be
Forfeit now all the sanitized things
Forfeit now all my pride and dreams
Runnin' from who I thought that I was
Runnin' from who I thought that you would be
Forfeit now all the sanitized things
[Verse 2]
Light the ground before me so my brain won't think
What is now behind me wasn't meant to be
Hide me from the thoughts that hold all I know will sting
Oh, help me see the failure isn't all I'll be
[Chorus]
Runnin' from who I thought I was
Runnin' from who I thought you'd be
Forfeit now all the sanitized things
Forfeit now all my pride and dreams
Runnin' from who I thought that I was
Runnin' from who I thought that you would be
Forfeit now all the sanitized things
[Bridge]
If I can't be me to myself
Why should I be me at all?
Throw it up on a shelf
Collecting dust 'til it falls
If I can't be me to myself
Why should I be me at all?
Throw it up on a shelf
Collecting dust 'til it falls
If I can't be me to myself
Why should I be me at all?
Throw it up on a shelf
Collecting dust 'til it falls
If I can't be me to myself
Why should I be me at all?
Throw it up on a shelf
[Outro]
Runnin' from who I thought I was
Runnin' from who I thought you'd be
Forfeit now all the sanitized things
Forfeit now all my pride and dreams
Runnin' from who I thought I was
Runnin' from who I thought you'd be
Forfeit now all the sanitized things
Why don't I show myself to myself enough?
Why let all emotions control at all costs
Am I even feelin' what I thought I've felt?
Who I've dreamt of bein' is six feet underground
[Chorus]
Runnin' from who I thought I was
Runnin' from who I thought you'd be
Forfeit now all the sanitized things
Forfeit now all my pride and dreams
Runnin' from who I thought that I was
Runnin' from who I thought that you would be
Forfeit now all the sanitized things
[Verse 2]
Light the ground before me so my brain won't think
What is now behind me wasn't meant to be
Hide me from the thoughts that hold all I know will sting
Oh, help me see the failure isn't all I'll be
[Chorus]
Runnin' from who I thought I was
Runnin' from who I thought you'd be
Forfeit now all the sanitized things
Forfeit now all my pride and dreams
Runnin' from who I thought that I was
Runnin' from who I thought that you would be
Forfeit now all the sanitized things
[Bridge]
If I can't be me to myself
Why should I be me at all?
Throw it up on a shelf
Collecting dust 'til it falls
If I can't be me to myself
Why should I be me at all?
Throw it up on a shelf
Collecting dust 'til it falls
If I can't be me to myself
Why should I be me at all?
Throw it up on a shelf
Collecting dust 'til it falls
If I can't be me to myself
Why should I be me at all?
Throw it up on a shelf
[Outro]
Runnin' from who I thought I was
Runnin' from who I thought you'd be
Forfeit now all the sanitized things
Forfeit now all my pride and dreams
Runnin' from who I thought I was
Runnin' from who I thought you'd be
Forfeit now all the sanitized things
