Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Feel like I'm never enough
Say I don't give a fuck
So I keep my shit down low
Slowly comin' undone
Yeah, I run in circles
[Refrain]
Get back
Get back, get away
But watch me try hard anyway
It's so fake, self-hate's killing me
I know that I'm not that
And I'm sick of pretending
So sick of pretending
[PreChorus]
I need to run away
Soon, I'll be just like the others
Hide my face
No one knows it's pulling me under
[Chorus]
Feels like I'm running, running, oh
Feels like I'm running in circles
Feels like I'm running, running, oh
Feels like I'm running in circles, yeah
[Verse 2]
I'll dig a hole in the earth
And bury myself down low
I'm never speaking again
I'll hide beneath the surface
[Refrain]
Get back
Get back, get away
I'm fucked up, and I can't see straight
Late nights, Jameson and nicotine
I'm not that, I'm not that
So sick of pretending
[PreChorus]
I need to run away
Soon, I'll be just like the others
Hide my face
No one knows it's pulling me under
[Chorus]
Feels like I'm running, running, oh
Feels like I'm running in circles
Feels like I'm running, running, oh
Feels like I'm running in circles
[Bridge]
I'm so sick of pretending, oh
That I'm someone or something I'm not
So I'm back where I started
Falling apart
[PreChorus]
I need to run away
Soon, I'll be just like the others
Hide my face
No one knows it's pulling me under
[Chorus]
Feels like I'm running, running, oh
Feels like I'm running in circles
Feels like I'm running, running, oh
It feels like I'm running in circles
[Outro]
Yeah, feels like I'm running in circles
Yeah, it feels like I'm running in circles
