Runaway
The first time I saw I was four years old
Slamming their rage through the door
As I'm lying on the bedroom floor
I knew this wasn't love it's not how it's supposed to go
How was I meant to respond when it's all I've ever known?
I call this home
Brother can you hear me?
Brother please speak to me
Did I make you scream?
It's called the runaway when you runaway
From the fire that's required
For the protective position
But a two year difference
Creates forbidden liars and forced desires
From your perfection I became expired
Perceived as a burden
You run this kingdom
Masking insecurities at seventeen
Mum would fall for the lies but you knew I was far from clean
Chasing the teenage dream
I was seen for the fun with nowhere to run
A deflated lung when their experiment was done
It's shockingly wrong they wore the crown they had won
I'm here skin turned to stone questioning
Where have you gone?
It's called the runaway when you runaway
From the fire that's required
For the protective position
But a two year difference
Creates forbidden liars and forced desires
From your perfection I became expired
Perceived as a burden
You run this kingdom
Ohh
(Can you hear me?)
(Brother please speak to me)
Brother can you hear me?
Can you speak to me?
It's called the runaway when you runaway
From the fire that's required
For the protective position
But a two year difference
Creates forbidden liars and forced desires
From your perfection I became expired
Perceived as a burden
You run this kingdom
Slamming their rage through the door
As I'm lying on the bedroom floor
I knew this wasn't love it's not how it's supposed to go
How was I meant to respond when it's all I've ever known?
I call this home
Brother can you hear me?
Brother please speak to me
Did I make you scream?
It's called the runaway when you runaway
From the fire that's required
For the protective position
But a two year difference
Creates forbidden liars and forced desires
From your perfection I became expired
Perceived as a burden
You run this kingdom
Masking insecurities at seventeen
Mum would fall for the lies but you knew I was far from clean
Chasing the teenage dream
I was seen for the fun with nowhere to run
A deflated lung when their experiment was done
It's shockingly wrong they wore the crown they had won
I'm here skin turned to stone questioning
Where have you gone?
It's called the runaway when you runaway
From the fire that's required
For the protective position
But a two year difference
Creates forbidden liars and forced desires
From your perfection I became expired
Perceived as a burden
You run this kingdom
Ohh
(Can you hear me?)
(Brother please speak to me)
Brother can you hear me?
Can you speak to me?
It's called the runaway when you runaway
From the fire that's required
For the protective position
But a two year difference
Creates forbidden liars and forced desires
From your perfection I became expired
Perceived as a burden
You run this kingdom
