Running Away - Kina Grannis

I hide my face

I’m trying harder than you’d ever know

And I can’t help what’s wrong

You’ve found your light

And no I, I can’t fall down

Wherever we were lost

You’ve returned from, but I have not been found

CHORUS:

And you’re running away from what’s here

But what you’ve found is not another place or year

And you’re running away from what’s real

Ignoring your past and what you feel

When darkness falls, I feel we’re led by separate powers

And I know you see much more than stars above

And yet your smile still fades

I noticed as you’re trailing blindly behind an absent hand you made

CHORUS

BRIDGE:

And not 10 minutes before crushing metal blinding lights

And fire he had raised his eyes to the icon on the dashboard and he said,

«Is it enough for me to live in theory?»

Sipping down his sorrow, he set the bottle down

Having never thought this life was for himself

'Cause he was running away from what’s here

And what he found was not another place or year

He was running away from what we feel

Never giving himself the chance to live for real
