about

A song about running away and wanting to leave life behind and just vanish into the world, alone. The want to escape reality and put everything behind you. And then meeting somebody with the same ideals that doesn't want to be around you either.
Or if interpreted another way, could be hinting about the struggles of social distancing.

lyrics

When I run
I run alone
You can’t stop me
Survival 101
I’ll find you when I’m done
Watch your back now
You can’t see you’re in danger
Would you rather be without you or without me?

A guilty man
He pleads no innocence
When your time is up
Your time has come
A victim of a well laid circumstance
Someone told me

When I hide
I hide alone
You can’t find me
Truth in you I can confide
Loving you cold suicide
Running free and running scared
Keep it inside
Run away cuz I don’t care
Feels like running out of air

A guilty man
He pleads no innocence
When your time is up
Your time has come
One bad move leads to consequence
Someone told me

Keep your distance
I don’t wanna be around you anyway
Keep your distance
I don’t hear the sound of anything you say

The smell of tension in the air
You can’t taste it
We’re running out of time
I got yours and you got mine

A cry for help when no one hears
Share your story
It’s only one more fear
One that’s far and one that’s near

A guilty man
He claims no innocence
When your time is up
Your time has come
A victim of this well laid circumstance
Someone told me

Keep your distance
I don’t wanna be around you anyway
Keep your distance
I don’t hear the sound of anything you say
Someone told me
Keep your distance
I don’t wanna be around you anyway
Someone told me
Keep your distance
I don’t hear the sound of anything you say
Oh yeah

Someone told me
Keep your distance
I don’t wanna be around you anyway
Keep your distance
I don’t hear the sound of anything you say
Someone told me
Keep your distance
I don’t wanna be around you anyway
Someone told me
Keep your distance
I don’t hear the sound of anything you say
I’ll just go away

Keep your distance
I don’t wanna be around you anyway
Someone told me
Keep your distance
I don’t hear the sound of anything you say
