Lyrics
[verse]
Robert's got a room full of secrets nobody sees,
Hiding in the quiet where nobody hears him breathe,
The neighborhood keeps smiling like nothing is wrong,
But something in the silence carries on and on.
[verse]
Daddy works late and the house feels too big,
He counts the cracks in the ceiling, thinks about the rig,
Nobody stops to ask him how he's really been,
He's just the quiet kid that nobody lets in.
[chorus]
Keep on running from the weight in your chest,
Keep on running, you deserve a little rest,
Keep on running till the quiet feels undone,
Keep on running toward the morning sun.
[verse]
The synth hums a hook that feels too bright for this,
A cheerful little melody hiding something amiss,
Nobody notices the boy who's slipping through the cracks,
Until it's already too late to bring him back.
[chorus]
Keep on running from the weight in your chest,
Keep on running, you deserve a little rest,
Keep on running till the quiet feels undone,
Keep on running toward the morning sun.
[bridge]
(instrumental — bouncy synth hook, deceptively upbeat groove)
[chorus]
Keep on running from the weight in your chest,
Keep on running, you deserve a little rest,
Keep on running till the quiet feels undone,
Keep on running toward the morning sun.
