[Verse 1]

Time, it seems

Would only make me

Feel the same but for longer

An ache like this

Don’t go away

On it’s own

Eyes wide open

Like a shooting range

I’m the one holding the gun

It’s pointed at me

That’s all I can see

So I run

[Chorus]

I could shout it out loud

In an empty space

Or a crowded one

Nothing would change

I could talk to my friends

Like I already have

But I think

Nothing would change

There’s an itch I can’t reach

There’s a taste I can’t place

There’s a pebble lodged in my shoe

There’s an image under eyelids

Of lives I could live

[Verse 2]

But we’re young, so young

Don’t waste your time

It’s funny how we’ve got so much

Now and again I remind myself

But I still feel so old

[Chorus]

I could shout it out loud

In an empty space

Or a crowded one

Nothing would change

I could talk to my friends

Like I already have

But I think

Nothing would change

There’s an itch I can’t reach

There’s a taste I can’t place

There’s a pebble lodged in my shoe

But the gulf in between

Where I want to be

And where I’m standing

It seems to recede
