Too many words
Too many lies
I cant quite see the truth
When I look into your eyes

[Bridge]
I feel I'm cured
And I know I should
Step away turn around
Let my feet hit the ground
Running, running, running, running

[Chorus]
You don't need a broken heart
To know one can be broken
You just need to open your eyes, yeah
We don't need to be deceived
To know a lie can be spoken
We don't have to learn everything twice

I don't know
I really don't know
If this castle in the sand
Is strong enough to stand

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

Cause I know
How it feels
All the pain
Is so real
Cause you sink
And you drown
Till your feet hit the ground
Running, running, running, running

[Chorus]
