We can't run from the past of all these gears and scalpels.
At every hour goes the tick-tock bang of monitors as they stared us down when we met in the emergency room.
In our beds, I could hear you breathe with help from cold machines.
Every hour, on the hour, they drew blood.
I felt I couldn't take another day inside this place; silent dreams we never wake, and in this promise that we make.
Starless eyes, for heavens sake, but I hear you anyways.
Well, I thought I heard you say "I like you, we can get out.
We don't have to stay inside this place." Some day, this day, we'll set the ferris wheel ablaze.
You left my heart and open wound, and I love you for this day.
One day, this day... it's all we have to keep us sane, and if we never sleep again, it would never end.
I thought I heard you say to me, "We'll go so far, far as we can", and I just can't stay. One day we'll run away.
