Running Away
Omar Rodríguez-López
Take away the seeds of all your sorrow
Calm the wave of fear in your eyes
[Chorus]
Yes I keep on running away, my love
And I know it's far too late, to say
The regret in me is slowly catching fire
It burns my heart into a tired shame
[Chorus]
Yes I keep on running away, my love
And I know it's far too late, to say
I'm sorry that my pain has hurt you
Bury it so love can grow again
We'll build a home and live right next to
Open up the door and let you in again
It seems the roles we played are set in stone again
But wouldn't it be nice if we could fix ourselves and prove them all wrong?
[Chorus]
Yes I keep on running away, my love
And I know it's far too late, to say
Still I keep on running away, my love
And I promise not to say those things that make you break
