I Ran Away

Never sure whose side to take
Never sure when I’m awake
If there’s a difference make it three
If I could change I would agree
There’s a section outta reach
Little things I’d like to keep
Rattles in your head a sign
I’d expect another time
I ran away
I gave it up today
Who could I blame
It can’t be true
I ran away
I stomped an then I phase
That’s where I stay
To wait for you
Keep it now and keep the sound
All the piecеs that you found
Fit together just to reach you
Hold up outta town
In thе head’s a jumbled mess
Like to sort this out instead
I can’t hold on just to meet you
Push out all the rest
I ran away
You had enough to say
It fell away without a peep
Can I expect
Don’t need to be that wreck
That’s not to say it’s gonna keep
Meet me where I know
Here’s a piece I can’t let go
The difference is you found it
There’s no way of knowin'
Packed away from here
Swallowed up and logged the fear
Wish you took a picture
To show me where you're goin
I ran away
If you gave up today
I found a way to keep it true
I ran away
It can’t just be this way
That’s where I’ll stay
To wait for you
