The Interim

I found you throwing pebbles at a star And counting rain drops in a jar I had forgotten that some people really are still dreaming They are still dreaming You never knew what fear was all about You never felt the hollow ache of doubt That someday you just may be without a next time Without a next time I wish that I was stronger and able to hold Without the help of someone weaker, I can mold Into the person I would like myself To be, to be, to be I heard a thought moving in its shell The sound of stones dropped into a well And all too soon it was so easy to tell That I was winning in a game that I didn't want to play That I didn't want to play I just gotta stop running away I just gotta stop running away I wish that I was stronger and able to hold Without the help of someone weaker, I can mold Into the person I would like myself To be, to be, to be I don't know where it all began But I've been running time and time again And I'm just waiting for the moment when I can slow it down, oh, when I can slow it down I just gotta stop running away I just gotta stop running away I just gotta stop running away Running, running, yeah, running Won't you help me? Help me stop running away Won't you help me? Help me stop running away, running
