How to run to you

[Verse 1] You walk in the Golden Hall, I hide outside the glass doors, my palms dusty, afraid to utter your name. You say you love crowns, that you want to be glorious your whole life, while I have to calculate for ages before I can even buy a new shirt.

[Chorus] My status is too lowly, I dare not look you in the eye, I can only stay on the edge of the crowd, learning to let my feelings fade like smoke. You say I’m from the lower class, that I’ve insulted existence, so how can I change myself to enter your life? (hey)

[Verse 2] You take photos on a distant coastline. I squeeze onto the last train after work. You say freedom requires capital. All I have left is exhaustion and food. I want to get closer, but I’m afraid you’ll find it annoying. Even a simple greeting feels like a luxury. I stand outside your world, even my shadow seems superfluous and awkward.

[Chorus] My status is too lowly. I dare not look up at you even once. I can only stay on the edge of the crowd, learning to fold my thoughts into smoke. You say I’m from the lower class, that I’ve insulted existence. Then how can I learn to be noble so I can enter your gaze?

[Bridge] If one day I earn enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with you, would you be willing to call me one of your kind? (ooh) Or no matter how hard I try to catch up, I can never overcome your defenses. I run and pull myself together, but I can’t run into your world.

[Chorus] My status is too lowly, even my remaining courage trembles. I can only hide my love deep in a faraway place. You say I’m from a lower class, that I’ve insulted existence. Then how can I love someone without disturbing your eternity? (woah)
