Lyrics Outrun Me - Fear of Men

Outrun Me

Young boy, pale skin
Genetic longing
I reject my body
Find it wanting in every way
I’ll drink a toast if you leave me
Dear little mother
With claws
In the morning if you ask me
I’ll understand you more
You were my first school
The one that stopped my mind from leaving
That told me what to believe in
Don’t tell me what to believe in
Outrun Me
The past does not come easily
Outrun Me
The past does not come easily
Deep down I’m shallow
Nothing left to outgrow
Without common decency
I’ve lost my sense of mystery
I’ll be ashamed if you see me
Dear little mother
With claws
In the morning if you ask me
I’ll understand you more
You were my first school
The one who stopped my mind from leaving
That told me what to believe in
Don’t tell me what to believe in
Outrun Me
The past does not come easily
Outrun Me
The past does not come easily
I’ve changed, I’ve changed
I’ve changed, I’ve changed
I’ve changed, I’ve changed
I’ve changed, I’ve changed
Outrun Me
The past does not come easily
Outrun Me
The past does not complete me
