You like to tell me you are free Words don't make it true Sitting beneath a bodhi tree Wanna erase the real you Buddha hanging on the wall Sandalwood in the air Curling up to the endless sky Still you go nowhere
What are you running for? It's a beautiful lie Such a beautiful lie What are you running for? It's a beautiful lie Such a beautiful lie
Your hands are tied, your heart on fire When it all goes down Pushing against a blinding star Lying shattered on the ground Paper planes in the violet sky Disappear from view Torn apart, everything will die Everything you thought you knew
What are you running for? It's a beautiful lie Such a beautiful lie What are you running for? It's a beautiful lie Such a beautiful lie
Don't tell me that No, don't tell me that You don't need I know you wanna be loved Don't tell me that No, don't tell me that You don't need I know you wanna be loved
What are you running for? It's a beautiful lie Such a beautiful lie What are you running for? It's a beautiful lie Such a beautiful lie
