lyrics

Back when you were too young,
You hum and you are where you run.
One day you are too old
You were scorned, so where you run
You will not go

Oh, my heart breaks & I am out of breath
Oh, my lungs ache & I am close to death

This time I’m not OK.

Come down, calm down

High speed, everything is here!
All at once, all you want
But I’m not.
People are falling down on me
All their thoughts, oh my god!
Knock me out

Oh, my heart races & I am out of breath
Oh, my lungs blaze & I am close to death

This time I’m not OK

Raise the ground up to my height until I come down
