Sivan, Troye - Running Shoes Lyrics






I'll keep wearing these running shoes 'til I'm all worn out
And they're no use to me
No use to me
Gunning for a peace from this abuse
'Cause I'm all tired out and I'm no use to you
No use to you

And there's no rest for the wicked
So I'm screaming and I'm kicking to sleep
To sleep
The beliefs they're instilling
On the boys, on the children
On me, on me

I've been running, I've been running for a while
For a while
I've been running, I've been running for a while
For a while

These running shoes weigh me down
These running shoes are wearing out
This running

Carved his name in the carpet
Right where I spent all of my sleepless nights in that room
In that room
Can't get his face out of my mind
And God knows that I've tried and tried for you

And there's no rest for the wicked
So I'm screaming and I'm kicking to sleep
To sleep
The beliefs they're instilling
On the boys, on the children
On me, on me

I've been running, I've been running for a while
(Running, running)
For a while
(Running, running)
I've been running, I've been running for a while
(Running, running)
For a while
(Running, running)

These running shoes weigh me down
These running shoes are wearing out
This running
(Running, running)
(Running, running)
These running shoes weigh me down
These running shoes are wearing out
This running
(Running, running)
(Running, running)

Love in America got me down
Try to take off running but hit the ground

These running shoes weigh me down
(I've been running, I've been running for a while)
These running shoes are wearing out
This running
These running shoes weigh me down
(I've been running, I've been running for a while)
These running shoes are wearing out
This running
These running shoes weigh me down

    Hi But this version is not on the Target edition. Here in the video is a special bridge verse: "Love in America got me down, try take off running but hit the ground" - but this is not on the cd. Where did you get this version in the video???? Please. It's lovely.

  16. A.... S....

    This sounds like a song to listen to while you’re driving through the backroads; it gives me good/ sad vibes

  17. l.... l....

    what ??? i buy a CD but it doesnt have this song in the album

    l.... l....

    The song is only in the Target Edition

    l.... l....

    This one and another called This This are only on the American target CD edition of the album and on the Japanese CD edition. But on the cds is not this version of Running shoes. there is 30 seconds shorter version vithout the bridge verse Love in America.... You can find the CDs on ebay.

  18. J.... ....

    I´m fucking crying thank Troye Sivan

  19. C.... b....

    Okay guys, Do you think this song is just about a heartbreak/sad love story OR about being gay, closeted & in love with someone ? Because “the beliefs they are instilling on the boys, on the children, on me” confuses meee. And obvioulsy he didn’t explain it since it’s an exclusive song.

    C.... b....

    Cloe bcr i believe it’s about his time on set of boy erased

    C.... b....

    Jacob yeah that’s what I thought, but I wasn’t sure ! Did you find that somewhere or is it a guess ? :)

    C.... b....

    Cloe bcr he explained this this and running shoes’ meanings on twitter

    C.... b....

    Jacob okay, thank you !

    C.... b....

    and what is this this about???

  20. N.... a....

    Omg I love this😭❤️

  21. G.... C....

    I really need to find out what genre this and The Good Side are. WHY IS IT CATEGORISED AS POP? THIS IS NOT POP

    G.... C....

    Geovanny Carriel i would say indie folk. especially running shoes.

    G.... C....

    I have seen before that Troye is referred to as "dream pop."

    G.... C....

    Same but bloom is mostly pop. BN was dream pop/alternative

    G.... C....

    girl this is a pop ballad lmao shut up

  22. b.... s....

    PRAISE THE LORD

  23. b.... ....

    dont mind me im just emotionally unstable

  24. K.... T....

    Anyone getting June haverly ep vibes? Just me?

    K.... T....

    Karlita TV she's 22 and shes luving uu

    K.... T....

    blessed be the mystery of love YESS

  25. k.... a....

    chills.

  26. P.... P....

    "carved his name on the carpet"
    "There's a heart stain on the carpet"

    P.... P....

    We love parallels

    P.... P....

    This hurts

  27. A.... B....

    These running shoes are wearing out
    This running
    These running shoes weigh me down

    Love in America, got me down
    Try take off running but hit the ground
    (I hit the ground)


    These running shoes weigh me down
    (I’ve been running, I’ve been running for a while)
    These running shoes are wearing out

    These running shoes weigh me down
    (I’ve been running, I’ve been running for a while)
    These running shoes are wearing out
    This running
    These running shoes weigh me down
