Loftland - Runaway lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Been standing up this tree

You know I've longed to taste it's fruit

You know I've longed to taste its fruit

But now what once seemed sweet

Is rotting in my mouth

Can't believe what I have done

Shame creeps inside my chest

And so I turn and run

But I just can't seem to catch my breath

(Chorus)

I'm just a runaway

I'm just a runaway

(Verse)

Now I know I can't go back

To the life I left behind

Wish that I could change the past

Oh, but it's over now

Don't want to pay for what I've done

I've got shame inside my chest

So many things I can't outrun

Cause I just can't seem to catch my breath

(Chorus)

I'm just a runaway

I'm just a runaway

But I can hear you say

Yeah, I can hear you say

(Interlude)

Oh, give up, my love is a lion

Fierce and free

Relentless and violent

Oh, you know there's no place left to run
