And we can run from the backdrop
Of these gears and scalpels
At every hour goes the tick-tock
Bang of monitors asThey stared us down when we met
In the emergency room
And in our beds I could hear you breathe
With help from cold machinesEvery hour, on the hour
They drew bloodWell I felt I couldn't take
Another day inside this place
From silent dreams we never wake
And in this promise that we'll makeStarless eyes for heaven's sake
But I hear you anyway
Well I thought I heard you say"I like you, we can get out
We don't have to stay
Stay inside this place"Someday, this day, we kept falling down
Someday, this day, set the ferris wheels ablaze
You left my heart an open wound
And I love you forThis day, someday we kept falling down
One day, this day, all we had to keep us safe
And if we never sleep again, it would never endWell I thought I heard you say to me
We'll go so far, far as we can
And I just can't stay, one day we'll run away
