Mile 29 Lyrics

At mile number one

I'm still so sure I have to run

The road beneath feels like

A perfect path toward the sun

Like a train track moving me

Exactly where I need to be

At mile number twelve

The puzzle doesn't fit so well

Maybe I'm forgetting how it feels

To be myself

The track seems to just fade away

Maybe it was best to stay

And by mile twenty nine

I'm ignoring the signs

And looking for the road

That leads you back into my life

Hoping that it's not the end

But I can't go back there again

You can't cross the line

After mile twenty nine

At mile forty three

I think there's nothing left in me

Empty from screaming at you

All those obscenities

Seemed so righteous at the time

Chose to lose you and win the fight

At mile fifty two

I think of nothing else but you

The way you clung to me

But I just drove into the blue

Don't know how long it'll last

But I can't go back 'cause

I've already passed

Mile twenty nine

I'm ignoring the signs

And looking for the road

That leads you back into my life

Hoping that it's not the end

But I can't go back there again

You can't cross the line

After mile twenty nine

I can't expect the light

To ever come inside if I've

Spent so many nights

Boarding up the blinds

I can't expect my heart to race

If I can't even trace your face

And see that I'm the reason that

We ever had to fall from grace

I can't expect the world

To bend before my feet

If the only one that I've

Been caring for is me

Leaving out your heavy load

And I've been running out of road

And I've been running out of time

But I can't find my way after

Mile twenty nine

I'm ignoring the signs

And looking for the road

That leads you back into my life

Hoping that it's not the end

But I can't go back there again

You can't cross the line

After mile twenty nine
