"Running Scared" lyrics
One of those nights when you want to get black out
One of those nights when you just don't care
One of those nights you don't think about tomorrow
One of those nights when you're running scared
I thought all of this was exactly what I wanted
It's day-to-day, is what they're telling me
Here you are showing up in my dreams yeah
I'd rather have you lying next to me
I just wanna black out
When it's feeling lonely
I'm running scared
I don't know how to be alone
I'm running scared and I can't even pick up the phone
I just wanna tap out (wanna tap out, wanna tap out yeah)
Without ceremony (ceremony, no more ceremony)
I'm running scared
I don't know how to be alone (I don't know how to be alone)
I'm running scared and I can't even pick up the phone (and I can't even pick up the phone)
In the back of my mind
I can hear a voice warning
"You shouldn't play
With matters of the heart"
In the back of my mind
I can hear that voice saying
"I know you're not
Who you say you are"
I see you in my dreams, I see you in the street
But you're moving on like there's nothing to keep
Like a fool finding out now after the fact
And it's years that you're not getting back
I just wanna black out (wanna black out, wanna black out)
When it's feeling lonely (when it's lonely, when it's feeling lonely)
I'm running scared
I don't know how to be alone (I don't know how to be alone)
I'm running scared and I can't even pick up the phone (and I can't even pick up the phone)
I just wanna tap out (wanna tap out, wanna tap out yeah)
Without ceremony (ceremony, cere-ceremony)
I'm running scared
I don't know how to be alone (I don't know how to be alone)
I'm running scared and I can't even pick up the phone (and I can't even pick up the phone)
So I keep going
I'm afraid if I stop
I'll be by myself
And alone with my thoughts
Now I can't think of a scarier place
It's a video game- the thrill of the chase
Cause I wanted it all, no I couldn't resist
You didn't ask for any of this
I just wanna
I just wanna black out (wanna black out, wanna black out)
When it's feeling lonely (when it's lonely, when it's feeling lonely)
I'm running scared
I don't know how to be alone (I don't know how to be alone)
I'm running scared and I can't even pick up the phone (and I can't even pick up the phone)
I just wanna tap out (wanna tap out, wanna tap out yeah)
Without ceremony (ceremony, cere-ceremony)
I'm running scared
I don't know how to be alone (I don't know how to be alone)
I'm running scared and I can't even pick up the phone (and I can't even pick up the phone)
I just wanna
One of those nights when you just don't care
One of those nights you don't think about tomorrow
One of those nights when you're running scared
I thought all of this was exactly what I wanted
It's day-to-day, is what they're telling me
Here you are showing up in my dreams yeah
I'd rather have you lying next to me
I just wanna black out
When it's feeling lonely
I'm running scared
I don't know how to be alone
I'm running scared and I can't even pick up the phone
I just wanna tap out (wanna tap out, wanna tap out yeah)
Without ceremony (ceremony, no more ceremony)
I'm running scared
I don't know how to be alone (I don't know how to be alone)
I'm running scared and I can't even pick up the phone (and I can't even pick up the phone)
In the back of my mind
I can hear a voice warning
"You shouldn't play
With matters of the heart"
In the back of my mind
I can hear that voice saying
"I know you're not
Who you say you are"
I see you in my dreams, I see you in the street
But you're moving on like there's nothing to keep
Like a fool finding out now after the fact
And it's years that you're not getting back
I just wanna black out (wanna black out, wanna black out)
When it's feeling lonely (when it's lonely, when it's feeling lonely)
I'm running scared
I don't know how to be alone (I don't know how to be alone)
I'm running scared and I can't even pick up the phone (and I can't even pick up the phone)
I just wanna tap out (wanna tap out, wanna tap out yeah)
Without ceremony (ceremony, cere-ceremony)
I'm running scared
I don't know how to be alone (I don't know how to be alone)
I'm running scared and I can't even pick up the phone (and I can't even pick up the phone)
So I keep going
I'm afraid if I stop
I'll be by myself
And alone with my thoughts
Now I can't think of a scarier place
It's a video game- the thrill of the chase
Cause I wanted it all, no I couldn't resist
You didn't ask for any of this
I just wanna
I just wanna black out (wanna black out, wanna black out)
When it's feeling lonely (when it's lonely, when it's feeling lonely)
I'm running scared
I don't know how to be alone (I don't know how to be alone)
I'm running scared and I can't even pick up the phone (and I can't even pick up the phone)
I just wanna tap out (wanna tap out, wanna tap out yeah)
Without ceremony (ceremony, cere-ceremony)
I'm running scared
I don't know how to be alone (I don't know how to be alone)
I'm running scared and I can't even pick up the phone (and I can't even pick up the phone)
I just wanna
