about

When you lose someone close to you, that's something you deal with for the rest of your life. Those memories can sneak up on you in random places, and you aren't always ready for it. When it happens to me, sometimes I just want to run away from it all. I know it's probably not the right way to deal with it, but it's just how I feel.

lyrics

I see your ghost in the crowd
It’s all straight from a dream
I see your ghost on a seat in the train
Always looking at me
I see your ghost everywhere
Always catching my eye
As if it isn’t hard enough
To let you die

Running away
Trying to stay away
I’m running away
I’m always trying to get away

Why’d you come back?
It’s not like I had begun
To forget your face
To forget your love
Why’d you appear
On that day?
When you should know how hard it is
For me to get away

Running away
From what I cannot avoid
I’m losing you again and again
I’m feeling all alone
While I am left to dream
Of you on the train
Always looking at me … always reminding me …

That I’m running away
I’m trying to stay away
I’m running away
I’m always trying to get away
I’m always trying to get away
Trying to get away from me
Trying to guarantee I’m free
I’m always trying to get away
Running away.
