Organ Pad, Subtle Synth Texture]<\/p>\n<p>You spoke like certainty was fact<br \/>\nBurned the map and won\u2019t look back<br \/>\nEvery warning brushed aside<br \/>\nWith another wave of pride<\/p>\n<p>Broken pieces on the floor<br \/>\nStill demanding something more<br \/>\nRunning hard but standing still<br \/>\nChasing after hollow thrills<\/p>\n<p>[Chorus]<br \/>\n[Arrangement:
