Can't Catch Up

I can't catch up to you You're already gone too far And you don't remember Who you are or who I am I can't catch up with you You're way up ahead of me And you're getting harder see Everyday as you run away You're cutting lines out on a bible Too busy dying to stop and live You done gave up on survival You gave all that you can give And I sure wish you would come back home Nothing else for you to prove I know you try real hard to make your mark But that world don't love you the way I do I can't catch up to you You're already gone too far And you don't remember Who you are or who I am I can't catch up with you You're way up ahead of me And you're getting harder see Everyday as you run away There just ain't no coming down When there ain't no one around And your head still makes that sound And I watch it drive you crazy Your mama's saying prayers Pleading with the man upstairs You feel like no one cares And I watch it drive you crazy You run run run run hiding from the sun u un And I know you wanna turn around But there's nothing I can do I can't catch up to you You're already gone too far And you don't remember Who you are or who I am I can't catch up with you You're way up ahead of me And you're getting harder see Everyday as you run away These demons behind their faces You know the lies they tell are true You paint yourself into a corner And you chose the color blue And you look for inspiration In the dark where the sickness lives And you're stumbling over your own two feet And you're headed for the edge of a cliff I can't catch up to you You're already gone too far And you don't remember Who you are or who I am I can't catch up with you You're way up ahead of me And you're getting harder see Everyday as you run away I watch you stumble watch you fall And I just can't seem to help at all And I feel... feel like I'm wasting my time with you And I know the way you feel been there myself And I just don't wanna see your plan And I don't wanna see you go through hell I know it hurts I know it stabs And I know it makes you feel real bad Feel those things that are going on Inside your head and make your eyes Bloody red and I sympathize Cuz I know the way you are And I know you won't get far
