Run Away
I'm alone on this rooftop and the sky is growing dark
Clouds are filled with lightning and the thunder stirs my heart
The wind tries to pull me away, I should probably go inside
But your voice comes to me like a call
I surrender to the storm in my mind
Your memory hits me like the rain, cold drops streaming down my face
Are these tears for what we had, or am I crying out of my own shame?
I said I'll never be enough for you but you loved me anyway
Why was that so hard to take
And why did I run away?
I still remember that night when I tried to say goodbye
You asked when you'd see me again, I couldn't look you in the eye
And as you turned to go, the rain began to fall
Felt like I'd lost a future - thrown away it all
Your memory hits me like the rain, cold drops streaming down my face
Are these tears for what we had, or am I crying out of my own shame?
I said I'll never be enough for you but you loved me anyway
Why was that so hard to take
And why did I run away?
Why did I run away?
Tell me, tell me, did I have to run away?
Run away, run away, run away, run away, run away
Why do I always run away?
I ran a thousand miles west, you ran a thousand east
I thought if I ran far enough, I could forget you and remember peace
I see your face in every crowd, there's no escape it seems
When I lay me down to sleep, I see you dancing through my dreams
Your memory hits me like the rain, cold drops streaming down my face
Are these tears for what we had, or am I crying out of my own shame?
I said I'll never be enough for you but you loved me anyway
Why was that so hard to take
And why did I run away?
Why did I run away?
Tell me, tell me, did I have to run away?
Run away, run away, run away, run away, run away
Why do I always run away?
Clouds are filled with lightning and the thunder stirs my heart
The wind tries to pull me away, I should probably go inside
But your voice comes to me like a call
I surrender to the storm in my mind
Your memory hits me like the rain, cold drops streaming down my face
Are these tears for what we had, or am I crying out of my own shame?
I said I'll never be enough for you but you loved me anyway
Why was that so hard to take
And why did I run away?
I still remember that night when I tried to say goodbye
You asked when you'd see me again, I couldn't look you in the eye
And as you turned to go, the rain began to fall
Felt like I'd lost a future - thrown away it all
Your memory hits me like the rain, cold drops streaming down my face
Are these tears for what we had, or am I crying out of my own shame?
I said I'll never be enough for you but you loved me anyway
Why was that so hard to take
And why did I run away?
Why did I run away?
Tell me, tell me, did I have to run away?
Run away, run away, run away, run away, run away
Why do I always run away?
I ran a thousand miles west, you ran a thousand east
I thought if I ran far enough, I could forget you and remember peace
I see your face in every crowd, there's no escape it seems
When I lay me down to sleep, I see you dancing through my dreams
Your memory hits me like the rain, cold drops streaming down my face
Are these tears for what we had, or am I crying out of my own shame?
I said I'll never be enough for you but you loved me anyway
Why was that so hard to take
And why did I run away?
Why did I run away?
Tell me, tell me, did I have to run away?
Run away, run away, run away, run away, run away
Why do I always run away?
