Lyrics

Intro

Oh oh

Yeah

Look

Verse 1

Siren spinning red

Stale sugar donuts inside the plastic box

Clocking ten hours

Busted radio humming about a getaway van

Pre-Chorus

Feet ache

Heads bake

Mistake

Chorus

He is running

But I am walking

Just keep running

Cause I am walking

Let him get away

Let him find the bay

He is running

But I am walking

Drop

Walking away

Walking away

Verse 2

Badge pins heavy on my sweaty polyester shirt

Handcuffs rattling low

Laces dragging in the gravel while I yawn

Forty more minutes until I clock out anyway

Pre-Chorus

Feet ache

Heads bake

Mistake

Chorus

He is running

But I am walking

Just keep running

Cause I am walking

Let him get away

Let him find the bay

He is running

But I am walking

Drop

Walking away

Walking away

Bridge

Maybe he is fast

Maybe he is fit

Maybe he is gone

I don't mind

I really don't care

I need a nap

I need a bed

I need a dream

Chorus

He is running

But I am walking

Just keep running

Cause I am walking

Let him get away

Let him find the bay

He is running

But I am walking

Drop

Walking away

Walking away

Walking away

Walking away

Chorus

He is running

But I am walking

Just keep running

Cause I am walking

Let him get away

Let him find the bay

He is running

But I am walking
