| I Keep Running As the lightning falls down / you call my name / you want me to rurn around / but I keep running. I run because / you know the truth / I run because/ I can't love you. And even though I said I did / I guess it was a lie, Please don't take this so bad / don't scream at me / and for god's sake don't cry. So if you think / that you belong with me / then stop your insistant sniffling/ Run with me / if you dare / and show the world / you give a damn / you care. But if you stay where you are / then don't expect me to come running / back into your arms / show to me / that you love me/ and maybe I will run no more. You feel the earth quake beneath your feet / you are scared / but you don't move. as the buildings come / crashing down / and the waters flow / all around / you call my name / and ask forgiveness / you call to me / and I look behind / to see you bound by chains of steel / to the ground / and I turn back around / and keep running / you weren't meant for me / and you don't love me / I wish I could have been there / to watch you fall / yet you are still chained there to the spot / as you contemplate on what you've got / and then you'll know of what you had / and realize it wasn't so bad . as soon as you run to me / I will also come to you / and maybe I will run no more. |
