  • Stop, 'cause you're killing me
    You brought me back and you made me feel free
    Rowdy waves and your energy
    You pulled me fragile from the wreckage
    I got so lost here
    Machine-assisted, I disappear
    Into a dream, you don't wanna hear
    How I got caught up in nowhere again

    It feels like I've been silent running
    Through the infinite pages, I've scrawled out
    Searching for a new world
    Waits on the sunrise

    I'm silent running
    Run, run, running, run, run, running
    Run, run, running, run, run, running
    Run, run, running, run, run, running
    Run, run, running (I'm silent running)
    Run, run, running, run, run, running
    Run, run, running, run, run, running
    Run, run, running (back to you), run, run, running
    Run, run, running

    Stop, 'cause you make me cry
    I think it's time that I decided
    What I've done when I trip and fly
    And where it's taking me (taking me)
    'Cause there's no way out of here (no way out)
    In the labyrinth, I disappear (no one here)
    To the dark fleets that got me here (underground)
    I got caught up in nowhere again

    Oh, it feels like I've been silent running
    Through the infinite pages, I scrawl out
    Searching for a new world
    Waits on the sunrise

    I'm silent running
    Run, run, running, run, run, running
    Run, run, running, run, run, running
    Run, run, running, run, run, running (back to you, back to you)
    Run, run, running (I'm silent running)
    Run, run, running, run, run, running
    (Oh, oh) run, run, running, run, run, running
    Run, run, running, run, run, running
    Run, run, running, run, run, running
    Run

    Make me cry
    I decide
    Takin' me
    Underground
    Oh, oh, oh

    I'm silent running
    Run, run, running, run, run, running
    Run, run, running, run, run, running (oh, back to you)
    Run, run, running, run, run, running
    Run, run, running (I'm silent running)
    Run, run, running, run, run, running
    Run, run, running, run, run, running
    Run, run, running, run, run, running (back to you)
