Running Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Every time I hear you speak
Every part of me grows weak
I lose the will to compete
Now the end is out of reach, I won't criticise your speech
Or the lesson that you teach

[Refrain 1]
You're scared of being lonely, but you choose to walk alone (Don't be scared, don't be scared, no no no no, no, no)
But I've turned into that woman that I promised I wouldn't be

[Chorus]
I don't know where to run
But I'm running anyway
I don't need to know
Which direction I should go
(As long as I'm away from you, as long as I'm away from you, as long as I'm away from you)

[Verse 2]
Convicted or condemned (Convicted or condemned)
Feed me to the lion's den (The lion's den)
Yeah, feel the rain, feel the rain, wash away all the things that you say
Feel the heart in my chest race away, race away, race away

[Refrain 2]
You're scared of being lonely, but you choose to walk alone
I've turned into that woman I promise, I promise I don't wanna be
[Chorus]
I don't know where to run
But I'm running anyway
I don't need to know
Which direction I should go, go, go

[Bridge]
Make good with them in the water
(As long as I'm away)
Make good with them in the water
(As long as I'm away from you)
Make good with them in the water
(As long as I'm away from you)
Make good with them in the water
(As long as I'm away)
Make good with them in the water
Make good with them in the water
(As long, as long, as long as I'm away from you)
Make good with them in the water
Make good with them in the water

[Outro]
I don't know where to run
But I'm running anyway
If I, I get lost, I'll trust my senses
I don't need to know which direction I should go
As long as I'm away from you, I'll take my chances

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
