[Verse 1]
C G
I can still remember,
Am
The words and what they meant,
F
As we etched them with our fingers,
C
In years of wet cement.
G
Days blurred into each other,
Am
Though everything seemed clear,
F
We cruised along at half speed,
Am
But then we shifted gears.
F C Dm Am
We ran like vampires from a thousand burning suns!
F G
But even then we should have stayed...
[Chorus]
Am F
But we ran away,
C G
Now all my friends are gone.
Am F C G
Well maybe we've outgrown all the things that we once loved.
Am F
Ran away,
C G
What are we running from?
Am F C G
A show of hands from those in this audience of one?
Am G F
Where have they gone?
[Verse 2]
C G
Identities assume us,
Am
As nine and five add up,
F
Synchronising watches,
C
To the seconds that we lost.
G
And I looked up and saw you,
Am
I know that you saw me,
F
We froze but for a moment,
Am
In empathy...
F C Dm Am
I bought down the sky for you but all you did was shrug
F G
You gave my emptiness a name...
[Chorus]
Am F
And you ran away,
C G
Now all my friends are gone,
Am F C G
Maybe we've outgrown all the things that we once loved.
Am F
Ran away-ee-ayy,
C G
What are we running from?
Am F C G
A show of hands from those in this audience of one?
Am G F
Where have they gone?

[Bridge]
Am F C Am F G
We're all okay, until the day we're not.
Am F C Am F G
The surface shines, while the inside rots.
Am F C Am F G
We raced the sunset, and we almost won.
Am F C Am F G Am
We slammed the brakes, but the wheels went oooon...
[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Am F
And we ran away,
C G
Now all my friends are gone,
Am F C G
Well maybe we've outgrown all the things that we once loved.
Am F
Ran away,

What are we running from?
Am F C G
A show of hands from those in this audience of one?

Where have they gone?
