[Verse 1] The phone was ringing for an hour or so
When I heard your voice in Tokyo say
"Promise you won't do this anymore"
You've always given sound advice
And tried not to catastrophise
But honestly, I couldn't face the thought

[Chorus] Of that familiar feeling
When your heart is healing, Theodor
I just keep on running from it all

[Verse 2] I think I'll work from home today
I feel like quitting anyway
So, give me nothing ventured, nothing gained
This year blew my world apart
Admin with a broken heart
Last orders at a Kōenji Station bar

[Chorus] That familiar feeling
When your heart is healing, Theodor
I just keep on running from it all

[Bridge] It takes a lifetime
To begin to forget
I don't think I'm ready
I don't think I'm ready
So painful
Take me back to the start
The stillness of a lonely healing heart

[Outro] That familiar feeling
When your heart is healing, Theodor
I just keep on running from it all
