Run My Spirit Down Lyrics - Paper Sun - Shaimus

The earth went spinning round the sun today 

A little faster than it did yesterday 

Still I insist to ignore 

The steady pace of the passing days 

And I run my spirit down 

I got no money in my bank account 

Rent is due and I just ran out 

Still I insist to ignore 

How checks and change seem to dissipate 

And I run my spirit down 

But when the worst bursts on us like a cloud of rain 

And when it hurts and there's no one there to take the blame 

And debts are due and we've no idea how we're gonna pay 

The clouds will part and we'll see the sky again 

The home team's losing and I don't know why 

They never win, no, but they always try 

Still I insist to ignore 

It's only time before the loss is mine 

And I run my spirit down
