Bless me father I have sinned
I'm not sure where to begin
I won't name names or where I've been
But I've been there and back again

No Hail Mary's will save me
You learned to live with memories
Here, slip this sinner up your sleeve
Just stay inside until I leave

I've been running, always running 
Never have both feet on the floor
I've been running, always running
Now I'm not running anymore

The hands of time may tick no more 
Let darkness fall upon this door 
No waves will wash up on this shore 
I won the fight, but lost the war

I've been running, always running 
Never have both feet on the floor
I've been running, always running
Now I'm not running anymore

Yeah, there were roses I have loved 
Who've given or have given up 
I pushed your patience and my luck 
It wasn't love, I didn't trust
It wasn't you, or me, or us 
You've shouldered if's, and and's, and but's 
It's that way, OK, I've said too much 

But I've been running, always running 
Never had both feet on the floor 
I've been running, always running 
Now I ain't running anymore
