Runaways

(album: Arizona - 2019)

They say blood is thicker than water
That only time will tell
If it's a faulty connection
The light will always fail

Let's go all in
Play a game that none of us know
The stakes are high it's all or nothing
You'll have to excuse my imperfect judgement

We all got lost along the way
We hold these wounds that will not heal
I'm a runaway, I'm a runaway
And God doesn't even know my name

I'm sick of this, lies and tricks
Why won't you admit you were pretending
You said we had your word
But your word is so absurd
How's it worked out?
Has it worked out in your favor?
Thought you'd be something more than face down on the floor
How's it worked out?
Come on kid, keep your chin up
Thought you'd be something more than face down on the floor

We are the runaways

We all got lost along the way
We hold these wounds that will not heal
I'm a runaway, I'm a runaway
And God doesn't even know my name
These wild road leads several ways
On separate paths it feels unreal
Cause we're runaways, I'm a runaway
And God doesn't even know my name

This bond wasn't meant to break
A reaction we all still can feel
It was all in our heads
The illusion is dead
But I know that this is real

I'm so sick of this twisted lies and shit
This outcome plagues me
Makes me feel sick

We all got lost along the way
We hold these wounds that will not heal
I'm a runaway, I'm a runaway
And God doesn't even know my name
These wild road leads several ways
On separate paths it feels unreal
Cause we're runaways, I'm a runaway
And God doesn't even know my name
