02 - Run

We lived in storied towers and catacombs beneath
Our gods were broken down, replaced with bright machines
We were electric, made of cogs and wires and wheels
But since the walls came down, it's time to find our feet

And make them run
It's time to run
It's time to run
We'll lose it all unless we run

Step by step we took the world apart
And prised its secrets out, and bent them to our heart
'Til we could fly, 'til we could sink into the stars
Tin boats 10k down, and every piece was ours
And we'd never die, and we'd never lose our wings
Don't slip our godlike grasp from the heart of everything

But now grab what you can, we'll make our way
To the exit lights
And oh no, I know that you wanted to stay
But the world caught fire
And even so, there's a part of my heart that would burn
Just to stay in the moment, oh
Just a breath, just a second, just a moment more

Before we have to run
We have to run
We have to run
We'll lose it all unless we run

[instrumental]

Grab what you can, we'll make our way
To the exit lights
And oh no, I know that we wanted to stay
But the world caught fire
And even so, there's a part of my heart that would burn
Just to stay in the moment, oh
Just a breath, just a second, just a beat
Just a moment of peace

Before we have to run
We have to run
To run
We'll lose it all unless we run
