I've been making a lot of excuses
For not doing, what I'm not doing
I guess I'm not able or willing to deal with you

I've been making a lot of time and space
Going out, way out, of my way
For people and things who don't ask much of me

I say to myself, "get a hold of yourself - you can't outrun your past"
But that don't stop me
From giving it my best

I've been spending day after day
Working at filling my hours with ways
To keep my hands busy without you

Okay, yes, I've been burning some bridges
I was raised by arsonists, and, if you ask me,
It didn't look sound anyhow - that's why I burned it down

I say to myself, "get a hold of yourself - you can't outrun your past"
But that don't stop me
From giving it my best

Don't have to tell me 'cause I have found
Everything leads to right here and now
I wouldn't take it back for a song
But no amount of sunshine or forest-bathing,
Saltwater, fresh air, or incantation,
Bonfires, bourbon, weed, or wine
Can heal what just takes time

I say to myself, "get a hold of yourself - you can't outrun your past"
But that don't stop me
From giving it my best

They say "get caught trying"
Well, ain't I trying - trying with all I have
Nothing's going to stop me
From giving it my best
