Run! Like you've been given a purpose
Like the light at the end of the tunnel is fading to dirt
First to divert to the glass, see what has come to pass

At long last
Convex reflection blurring the whole world
Or is that really the sound of tectonic shattering?
Is that really the ground that is battering hulls?

Shattering skulls?
Don't leave me alone with my pulse
I convulse, taking a turn for the worst
For the exit

Take a left at the next hit
Two seconds left to go!
Count down around me
Strobing the whole thing is out of control
I can't feel my hands or my nerves as they slur my feet
All I can feel is the beat

And I thought…

I had this predicted
I wrote the script
This is not how it's supposed to end

I had this predicted
I wrote the script
This is not how it's supposed to end

I had this predicted
I wrote the script
This is not how it's supposed to end

I had this predicted
I wrote the script
This is not the last line

Everyone I see cries idly by
I try and free from what is defined
Relying on cold perspective
Nothing good has come of being introspective

Now, it comes down to what must be done
To run or to stand and fight
However futile it might seem to dream of clear days ahead
With nothing to hope there's no reason to dread

Run! Feel the red through sight alone
The world is screaming monotone

Run! Now hear it come
And see and hear and breathe and fear and

Run! The way to safety screams your name
Sweat drips down and feigns to wait
Last minute; hands turn burning white
I stand alone to taste the fading light

I had this predicted
I wrote the script
This is not how it's supposed to end

I had this predicted
I wrote the script
This is not how it's supposed to end

I had this predicted
I wrote the script
This is not how it's supposed to end

I had this predicted
I wrote the script
This is not the last line

It's too late now
It's too late now
It's too late now
It's too late now now now
whoooa whoooa
