[Verse 1]
I fill my days with quick glances at my watch
Half break my neck looking over my shoulders
They stick around always laughing as they talk
At this rate I will never get much older
[Pre-Chorus]
I live my life like I'm running out of time
I live my life like I'm running out of time
I live my life like I'm running out of time
You'll have to keep up no you can't slow down
I live my life like I'm running out of time
I live my life like I'm running out of time
I live my life like I'm running out of time
You'll have to keep up
[Chorus]
Because while I'm busy running myself aftеr you
My shadows they are catching up right on cue
Thеy're my "back thens"; they're my "has been"s
My something I don't want anymore
Because while I'm tryna figure out what to do
My mistakes find a way to creep right on through
I want to forget all my regrets
But how will I know what was it all for?
[Post-Chorus Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
So buried in the past I rolled right into your arms
You caught me with your smile and your charm
Like a virus I infect everything that you hold dear
My feet are moving but only get so far
[Pre-Chorus]
I live my life like I'm running out of time
I live my life like I'm running out of time
I live my life like I'm running out of time
You'll have to keep up no you can't slow down
I live my life like I'm running out of time
I live my life like I'm running out of time
I live my life like I'm running out of time
You'll have to keep up
[Chorus]
Because while I'm busy running myself after you
My shadows they are catching up right on cue
They're my "back thens"; they're my "has been"s
My something I don't want anymore
Because while I'm tryna figure out what to do
My mistakes find a way to creep right on through
I want to forget all my regrets
But how will I know what was it all for?
[Bridge]
Haven't you heard that people never change
I'm not talking 'bout them, I'm not talking 'bout you
Haven't you heard that people never change
I'm not talking 'bout them, I'm not talking 'bout you
Haven't you heard that people never change
I'm not talking 'bout them, I'm not talking 'bout you
Haven't you heard that people never change
I'm not talking 'bout them
[Chorus]
Because while I'm busy running myself after you
My shadows they are catching up right on cue
They're my "back thens"; they're my "has been"s
My something I don't want anymore
Because while I'm tryna figure out what to do
My mistakes find a way to creep right on through
I want to forget all my regrets
My something that I ran from before
Because while I'm tryna figure out what to do
My mistakes find a way to creep right on through
I want to forget all my regrets
But how will I know what was it all for?
