lyrics

Feeling incomplete without reason
Something deep inside has lost it’s way

Cos it burns
It’s burning in my veins
Pulsing through untamed
And there’s nothing that I can do

I don’t want to be the lonely one
Left here dreaming of a life that’s gone
Scared to lose but it’s alright
Pictures of a better life
But when reality makes its stand
Where do you go to pretend?

If the world outside is just an illusion
Maybe it’s time for me to take a chance

So I run
Run into the night
But I’m feeling alright
Every second that I’m with you

I don’t want to be the lonely one
Left here dreaming of a life that’s gone
Scared to lose but it’s alright
Pictures of a better life
But when reality makes its stand
Where do you go to pretend?

I don’t want to be the lonely one
Left here dreaming of a life that’s gone
Scared to lose but it’s alright
Pictures of a better life
But when reality makes its stand
Where do you go to pretend?
