lyrics

it feels like I'm shrinking from the weight of the world on my back
don't know where I'm going but I'm holding the map
don't feel too good and I'm getting the shakes
guess I'm giving up cause that's what it takes

and you don't have to run
but I'm out of time
and we are the sun
but I don't have to run
from the second gun
pointed at me

well I'm going to bed right now
but I won't ever fall asleep
and if you read me a bedtime story
I will join your flock of sheep

I forgot my brain at work
I gotta go and get it back
and I'm fighting for my sanity
but what's the use in that

the dogs are sleeping gently
and they're running in their dreams
are they pursuing something or
are we all just chasing dreams
