Not Running Anymore
Bless me, Father, I have sinned
I'm not sure where to begin
I won't name names or where I've been
But I've been there and back again
No "Hail Mary's" will save me
You learn to live with memories
Here, slip this C note1 up your sleeve
Just stay inside until I leave
Chorus
I've been running, always running
Never have both feet on the floor
I've been running, always running
Now I ain't running any more
The hand of time may tick no more
Let darkness fall upon this door
No waves to wash up on this shore
I won the fight but lost the war
Chorus
There were those who I have loved
Who've given all, have given up
I pushed your patience and my luck
It wasn't love I didn't trust
It wasn't you, or me, or us
You've shouldered 'ifs,' and 'ands,' and 'buts'
It's not that way, ok, I've said too much, but…
Chorus
