Running Lyrics

I never thought it would come to this

I never thought I would have to go

Now I have to leave all this behind

Now it's time to say goodbye

Running, not from you

Running, to hide the truth

Running, to live the lie

Running, for you

Looking back, it all seems like such a dream

Which is the only place I see you now

Looking back, at this side chapter in my life

And how it would change who I am forever

Running, not from you

Running, to hide the truth

Running, to live the lie

Running, for you

The humiliation

The shame

That awful sense of failure

That complete loss of pride

A part of me

Will always be

Despite all I'm feeling

Thankful for this memory

A complex set of emotions

Tearing at me from all sides

A mix of joy and sadness

Of pleasure and pain

The landscape disappears

In the rearview I see it go

But what cuts deeply the most

Is this cherished memory

Running, not from you

Running, to hide the truth

Running, to live the lie

Running, for you

I'm off to a new life

To pick up the pieces

Not much left to gather

Even less to put together

No sense in running

There's no getting away from this

Too old inside

This will be with me forever

No sense in running

Can't walk another mile

No point in running

I'll always carry this with me

No more running

Too old and tired

Too weak and hurt

Too broken and lost
