Outrun Songtext
von Knavery

Distanced by panes of glasswork and frame
Phone calls are torture, but there′s no other way
Another crash, a flash on a screen
Everyone is dying, but what does it mean
Wonder each day what will finally be the the bane
Consider how many are affected the same
A new catch, another case seen
Is everything really as bad as it seems

Check your pulse are you safe
Are you clean
Are you far from the city where grass is still green
Stay off the road, don't leave a trace
Trust your gut, just in case


Six feet back, stay six feet back
Halfway down a pool of black
Go outside, but double back
Run or stay join the wolfpack
Common sense or consequence
This wishing well is bottomless
Six feet back, stay six feet back
Go outside, but double back

Misplaced shame and shifting blame
A bigger picture, still out of frame
A yellowed photo from when we were young
Wide eyed but not undone
When will this end or will this end
Is there a future around the bend
How will we cope if it all upends
On a pale blue dot, we spin and suspend

Where are the trees, where is the breeze
Where was the sun interceding the freeze
Where are the words that could make me believe
When will humanity get some relief


Six feet back, stay six feet back
Halfway down a pool of black
Go outside, but double back
Run or stay, join the wolfpack
Common sense or consequence
This wishing well is bottomless
Six feet back, stay six feet back
Go outside, but double back

How long will you wait, or will you wait
I′m not sure how much I can take
We had a plan, no thanks to fate
Revolution not too late
No colors flying when the morning comes
And when the barricade is overrun
Will my reflection change after it's done
Is this something I'll outrun
