Run Away

You were a light,

a stroke of hope amongst the dark;

you were the chance

for me to open up my heart.

Yet I saw you fly away from me

and I didn't know how to keep you back.

So close, so near,

my every thought was filled with you;

can't take the risk

of loosing and not pulling through,

so I pushed you away from me

and I know you won't be coming back.

My loneliness is wrapped in fear,

it's taking the lead, so I'm gonna stay

behind the comfort of a dream.

I want to get near but, I gotta say

it's so much easier to run away.

I hurts to say

I'm not as strong as I proclaim;

I hied my grief

But it will find me anyway,

cuz I pushed you away from me

and I know you won't be coming back.

My loneliness is wrapped in fear,

it's taking the lead, so I'm gonna stay

behind the comfort of a dream.

I want to get near but, I gotta say

it's so much easier to run away.
