About This Track

'Running' by Bully is a 2017 alternative track from the album 'Losing'. The lyrics cast a restive, self-scrutinising mood, weighing a six-month reset, quitting smoking, and the strain of being back in town around someone who is still present in the mind. There is also a restless pattern of procrastination and compulsive distraction, with trips to Chicago used to dodge the worry. The repeated emphasis on struggling with being back in town underscores a relationship hangover that won’t quite clear. The song closes on the ache of absence and the persistence of attachment, even when the person is not physically there.

"Running" is a single by Bully, from the album Losing, released 19th October 2017. The track is 3:42 long. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 7 articles about Bully.

Lyrics

Running

Been six months
Quit smokin and cleaned-up the worry
I procrastinate manic compulsive
Distract myself with trips to Chicago

I struggle with being back in town especially when
You're around and I struggle with being back in town
It's hard to do when you're not around and

You're still running
But I don't care
I'll admit it, I get anxious, too

Been two weeks since you lost the feeling
I guess now starts the process of healing and
You must be losing your mind
Stuck lying there with nothing but time

I struggle with being back in town
It kills me to hear news like this and
I struggle with being back in town
It's too much time to think and sitting

You're still running
But I don't care
I'll admit it, I get anxious, too
Just like you

I worry, I worry, I worry about you
I worry, I worry, I worry about you
I worry, I worry, I worry about you
I worry, I worry, I worry about you

What's it about being back in town
That always makes me feel like this?
I'm done with being back in town it's a solid, steady existence

You're still running
But I don't care
I'll admit it, I get anxious, too
Just like you
