Counting the Paces Songtext
von Brandon Patton

Help me, everything feels like a sham
I don′t know who the hell I am
And no one can tell I'm alone
Help me, I feel like I′m covered in sand
I've got to get out of this mood
I don't have a vine I can hold on to
It′s like every time, I defeat myself
Into the ring, now I′m choosing the weapon
No, no, no, don't shoot


Help me, everything′s crumbling down
I feel like a bug on the ground
So stepped on by accident, stuck on you
Please, whatever I said, I don't mean it
This is my worst, now you′ve seen it
Calmly just put down the shoe
It's like every time, I defeat myself
Into the ring, now I′m counting the paces
No, no, no, don't shoot

Can't we just be free?
Can′t we just be free?
Can′t we just be free?

I wish I could take more time to savor
Thoughts and reflect, but it all is
Flowers outside of the bullet train
Here comes one of those tunnels again
Where nobody could see it coming
Caught by surprise and you hold your breath

It's like every time, I defeat myself
Into the ring, now I′m counting the paces
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no, don't shoot
