I Can’t Run Away

Disconcerting...subliminal...apathy
Disturbing...psychobabble...inserting

having it's way with you

you only see things
from your outward mental view

I don't hear you
when you get this way
you make me want to run away

trapped beside your point of view
I’m climbing the walls of my mind
trying to find a way to understand you
learning the warning signs

I’m such a fool

you only see things
from your outward mental view

I don’t hear you
when you get this way
you make me want to run away

slipping on the slick of your dreams
falling in the quicksand of your screams

I can't find the door to see my escape
I’m trapped in this place with you

oh...I’m such a fool

you only see things
from your outward mental view

I don’t hear you
when you get this way
you make me want to run away

you're holding me against my will
forcing me to take your pill

I can feel myself slipping away
I’m falling from reality
into your psychobabble stew

It’s having its way with me

I’m only seeing things
from your outward mental view

I’m only hearing you
when you get this way

I can’t escape… I can’t run away

It’s having its way with me

Oh...I’m such a fool

I’m only seeing things
from your outward mental view


I’m only hearing you
when you get this way

I can’t escape… I can’t run away

I can’t run away…oh no

I can’t run away… I can’t run away
