You've been running for miles now   through battlefields   and warzones      You've been taking up all our time   with fantasies of new worlds      All your life you've been running away   in your suit of pain; your armor      So let the bombs drop   listen to the sound they make   on their way down   Let the bombs hit   get caught in the crossfire   then you fade out   how long have you been running,   how far does it take to feel safe?   I wish I knew ...      ... why your spies cross frontlines   to die out in the cold   dig your hole just a little bit deeper   before you start to show   (your hopes, your fears, the ghost beneath your armor)      So let the bombs drop   listen to the sound they make   on their way down   Let the bombs hit   get caught in the crossfire   then you fade out   how long have you been running,   how far does it take to feel safe?   I wish I knew ...      I always wanted to take you   I never wanted to say I'm sorry   now the truth can be spoken   and all the walls will come crashing to the ground       So let the bombs drop   listen to the sound they make   on their way down   Let the bombs hit   get caught in the crossfire   then you fade out   how long have you been running,   how far does it take to feel safe?   I wish I knew ...
