In Retrospect - Constellations Lyrics

Run run run
As fast as you can
The farther we get
The more we can stand
And so we run, run, run
But don't make a sound
We have to keep on running or they'll run us in the ground
I find that I'm in constant confrontation with myself
Cause everywhere I look I see people trying to be something else
They hide behind these signs designed to tell us that we're free
With their back turned to the mirror screaming I'm proud to be me
Upon this sinking ship I am the captain
A product of the circumstance I'm trapped in
But I'll fight with all my might against this raging sea
Won't be another dad who tells his kids who they should be, No
I see their faces frowning
They pull me down I'm drowning
My beds a vessel tipping over wave caps
The voices in my head are banging like a crowd at a cage match
I'm caught in the fight between my sleep, my thoughts, my feelings
I'll try to find some guidance in constellations on my ceiling
The fan fans the stands of fans in my brain
Their constant cries to be recognized are driving me insane
My heart will reassure me tell me the voices aren't so scary
But when you're your own worst enemy you have no sanctuary, No
I see my hands are shaking, I feel my heart its breaking
And so we run as fast as we can
The farther we get the more we can stand
And so we run but don't make a sound
We have to keep on running or they'll run us in the ground
And so we cry out for misguided guidance
Because our screams of hope can break through any silence
And so we run as fast as we can
The farther we get, the more that they'll chase us
And so we run as fast as we can
The farther we get the more we can stand
And so we run, we run, we run, we run, we run
But don't make a sound
We have to keep on running
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
Woah
Run Run Run
