Running
This is the original album version. Another track featuring much percussion layering, the busy beatloops back long, drawn-out vocal notes in the verses, with quicker whispers forming a pre-chorus that bounces from ear to ear and recalls a similar vocal approach in "Ruiner." The minimalist chorus retains the percussion layers but is differentiated by a smooth lead vocal and backing, harmonized "ooh" vocals. A bouncing guitar riff follows each chorus. The approach of rhythms and the subdued instrumentation and vocals atop recall the How To Destroy Angels track "The Believers."

Lyrics
I followed you again this morning Just close enough to feel you near Pretending everyone could see me Just slip away and disappear They're right behind They're so inclined They're all aligned We're undermined As good as blind I'm out of time So hard to find So well-defined They're all aligned They're intertwined We're undermined They're so inclined We're right behind So hard to find As good as blind I'm out of time I'm running out of places I can hide from this I'm running out of places I can hide from this I'm running out of ways to keep on hiding this I'm running out of places I can hide from this I had a friend I think who knew me I couldn't seem to make him stay I know they're watching waiting for me I know I'll never get away I'm running out of places I can hide from this I'm running out of places I can hide from this I'm running out of ways to keep on hiding this I'm running out of places I can hide from this
In the final version, the chorus line:
I'm running out of ways to keep on hiding this
was omitted for another:
I'm running out of places I can hide from this
