When You Ran

(album: Every Kind Of People - 2014)

A choice of, placement
Standing tall like a wall to the pavement
Love shown, mud thrown
Wrong place, wrong time, guess I should have known

We wanted the same thing, how, how?
Can we be the same thing, how?
How do I get over?

When you ran
When you ran
Behind the words that you say
When you ran
When you ran
You threw our love out of the way
You threw our love out of the way

Regret was said, but a heart broke
Too hard to repair with the air's so cold
No take back, only black
And blue from a battle, yeah it felt like that

We wanted the same thing, how, how?
Can we be the same thing, how?
How do I get over?

When you ran
When you ran
Behind the words that you say
When you ran
When you ran
You threw our love out of the way
You threw our love out of the way

Oh and every day I've replayed all the hurtful things you said
Like a broken record in my head
While you sleep soundly in our bed, in our bed
You ran
Like a child and hid behind the words you spit in my face
How easily you're in that space
Soon enough you'll push away love you can't replace
You can't replace

Oh, I've touched the flame, now the fires burning lower
I've felt the pain, now the water's pouring over
And all that hurt and all those tears
All that was wrong
It's only made me stronger
When you ran
When you ran
