I'm running away I've got to get home I'm lost in a crowd But I'm still on my own I'm looking ahead So I'm staying behind I'm not being cruel I'm just being kind
I close my eyes It's no surprise I'm always there Can't count the times I've tried to hide And found nowhere
I'm trying to lay low But I keep getting high My feet on the ground Got my head in the sky My eye on the future That's stuck in the past I find I can't lose When I aim to come last
I realise It's no surprise That nothing's clear That black is white That day is night And there is here
I'm right on the ball But I'm missing the mark I burn in the sun I'm scared of the dark Got an ivory tower With a bird's eye view Got plenty of time But nothing to do
The best disguise It's no surprise Is disappear Can't count the times I've tried to hide And found nowhere
