The Stakes Were Raised
Slow Runner

where am i gonna land
in the palm of someone's hand
i should have known that the good part was over
that you would leave at the end of the summer
but the stakes were raised
so i looked the other way

the sky turned red
the world came true
in the way i wanted you
i should have guessed that the moment was passing
i didn't catch all the signs that were flashing
cause the stakes were raised
and so i looked the other way

all of my hoping just turned into lying
kidding myself without even trying
i should have noticed the whole thing way dying
but the stakes were raised
and so i looked the other way
the stakes were raised
and so i looked the other way
