Young boy, pale skin
Genetic longing
I reject my body

Find it wanting in every way
Iâ??ll drink a toast if you leave me
Dear little mother

With claws
In the morning if you ask me
Iâ??ll understand you more

You were my first school
The one that stopped my mind from leaving
That told me what to believe in

Donâ??t tell me what to believe in
Outrun Me
The past does not come easily

Outrun Me
The past does not come easily
Deep down Iâ??m shallow

Nothing left to outgrow
Without common decency
Iâ??ve lost my sense of mystery

Iâ??ll be ashamed if you see me
Dear little mother
With claws

In the morning if you ask me
Iâ??ll understand you more
You were my first school

The one who stopped my mind from leaving
That told me what to believe in
Donâ??t tell me what to believe in

Outrun Me
The past does not come easily
Outrun Me

The past does not come easily
Iâ??ve changed, Iâ??ve changed
Iâ??ve changed, Iâ??ve changed

Iâ??ve changed, Iâ??ve changed
Iâ??ve changed, Iâ??ve changed
Outrun Me

The past does not come easily
Outrun Me
The past does not complete me
