The Runaways

Eyes open but I'm never gonna find it
Keep guessing but you're never gonna solve it
How much can your heart take?
How much can your heart...
You were searching for an escape
I was stuck inside my selfish ways
We're both just runaways
Hiding from the sins of yesterday
You never got what you want
I was always just the next best thing
I gave you everything
With nothing left for me
Nothing left
Eyes open but I'm never gonna find it
Keep guessing but you're never gonna solve it
How much can your heart take?
How much can your heart take?
You'll run, but you're never gonna get away
Even though you know it's never gonna change
How much can your heart take?
How much can your heart take?
How much can your heart take?
I heard the little voice inside your head,
Remind you that you're the one who said,
"I can never go home;
You'll never be alone."
But you turned around,
Buried our love deep underground
"No one will find me here
Alone with all that I fear."
Eyes open but I'm never gonna find it
Keep guessing but you're never gonna solve it
How much can your heart take?
How much can your heart take?
You'll run, but you're never gonna get away
Even though you know it's never gonna change
How much can your heart take?
How much can your heart take?
Take what you want from me
We'll go our separate ways
I lost you, you found me;
Some things you can't escape
Take what you want from me
We'll go our separate ways
I lost you, you found me;
Some things you can't escape
How much can your heart take?
Eyes open but I'm never gonna find it
Keep guessing but you're never gonna solve it
How much can your heart take?
How much can your heart take?
You'll run, but you're never gonna get away
Even though you know it's never gonna change
How much can your heart take?
How much can your heart take?
