Piston Heart

Verse 1

Three in the morning and I'm still awake

Counting the hours like they're something I can take

My pulse is a piston

Pounding out a rhythm I can't shake

Every thought arrives too fast

Every door I close won't latch

Pre-Chorus

Maybe I'm breaking

Maybe I'm fine

Maybe the ceiling is a friend of mine

Chorus

I don't know what I'm running from

I don't know what I'm running from

Something keeps on pulling me

Something keeps on pulling me

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Verse 2

The screen is glowing in the dark

I scroll until my fingers ache

Ten thousand voices arguing

And none of them can tell me what to say

I built a room inside my head

And now I can't remember how to leave it

Pre-Chorus

Maybe I'm slipping

Maybe I'm through

Maybe the answer was in front of you

Chorus

I don't know what I'm running from

I don't know what I'm running from

Something keeps on pulling me

Something keeps on pulling me

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Bridge

Sit still

Stay still

Feel the walls come closer

Breathe out

Breathe in

Tell myself it's over

Chorus

I don't know what I'm running from

I don't know what I'm running from

Something keeps on pulling me

Something keeps on pulling me

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Oh-oh, oh-oh
