Standing Still Might Kill You Inside

from Lions by Markus Nylund

lyrics

i chase her footsteps
although it's getting dark to see
i wish i knew what to do
so i could catch you
cause it's getting lonely as hell in this town
at least i have some time to look at
all those little details i may have missed
when i thought i knew who i was
i hope my past never catches me
that's why i gotta keep on moving
maybe a little less of dreaming
and more of believing

and now my thoughts are in chains
but the longer i stay
the harder it will be to change
people can ruin things for you
keeping your mind too open might risk individuality
helps keep myself company with me
and that's the way it usually goes
everybody have a tendency
to irritate me

i chase her footsteps
which i imagine completely
oh everyone has their own road
so stay out of my way
unless it's you i chase
i know you're just a chain in my head
that won't go away until a sacrifice is made
like a stone i wanna be
only the rain can comfort me
only the sea can terrify me
only laughter i feel
when i look at all these possibilities i see
like a stone i wanna be
buried under the sea
more free than here i could ever be
