Runway, Houses, City, Clouds Lyrics

[Verse 1]
But don't remind me of home
There's everywhere I'd rather go
It's true that some things have to change
Oh no

[Verse 2]
And don't remind me of home
Or I might notice where I am
It's true that some things
Have to change
I know some things have to change
It's true that some things have to change
I know some things have to change
Oh no

[Verse 3]
I'm gazing out the window
As I ascend into the sky
But I'm the one who's left behind

I'm the one who's left behind
There is nothing that is safe
I know some things have to change
Oh yeah, I do
Yeah, I do
[Verse 4]
But don't remind me of home
In case it isn't quite the same

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

Innerspeaker’s penultimate, “Runway, Houses, City, Clouds” is a whirlwind of heavy bass lines, foamy guitar riffs and psychedelic fuzz. By far the longest song from the album at seven minutes and 15 seconds long, Runway details the struggles of traveling, facing one’s ego, and escaping the past.

The title “Runway, Houses, City, Clouds” could represent the images Kevin sees as he travels.
