I Run

(album: Embrace - 2014)

The water's frozen to ice
We opened up the floodgates far too late this time
I've been a thorn in your side
The exit wound is clean but still it won't heal right
I hope we make it tonight
But there's no happy ending, we just run out of time

That's why I run for my life, you're exposing a side
That has made me alive for so long
Cause you took off my brilliant disguise and you showed me someone I don't know
And you took all my narcissist lies that I need to survive
That have made me alone for so long
Oh, I close my eyes and run

I know I'm bent back inside
I know that everything we had is gone now, I lied

That's why I run for my life, you're exposing a side
That has made me alive for so long
And you took off my brilliant disguise and you showed me someone I don't know
And you took all my narcissist lies that I need to survive
That have made me alone for so long
And you say as you're waving your goodbyes you can't stand it by my side
Because all I ever do is run

But no, no more
I'll run, I'll run
No, no more
I'll run, I'll run
No, no more
I'll run, I'll run
No, no more
I'll run, I'll run
