What if someone comes and tears us apart
Someone could tear at us

Something glorious to fly us away
But I can't even pilot it

What if I can't?
What if I can't?

And there's no way out of here

Keep running and running

I'd never again ever meet with my past
But it’s always surrounding me

What if I can't?
What if I can't?
