"Run Away" lyrics

"Run Away"

I know you left me long ago
But I've been longing since you left
To fill this empty space that you created
On this lonely bed
And I know it's not my fault
But I'm the one that's getting hurt
You sit upon your whorish throne
While I drown in shit I don't deserve

You left your t-shirt in my room
It used to smell like your perfume
I choked up when it was burning
But I blamed it on the fumes
And my pulse goes off the charts
When I can see you on the street
You know you ripped my life apart
But you won't get what's left of me

So I will run away
And get out of this town
In hope I never see your face
And I'll take back my heart
And rid my life of you
So that my life can finally start

And I'm so done with feeling numb
That I've been pissing in the breeze
No matter how much these girls come
They never miss their chance to leave
And I swear you rule my mind
But I wish you never left
And now I miss you all the time
And I just eat myself to death

You left your t-shirt in my room
It used to smell like your perfume
I choked up when it was burning
But I blamed it on the fumes
And now I'll run so far away
Maybe I'll run until I die
Well if my journey ends with that
At least we'll both be satisfied

So I will run away
And get out of this town
In hope I never see your face
And I'll take back my heart
And rid my life of you
So that my life can finally start

I saw the beauty in your oaks
I ate the apple from your tree
I thought I had you for myself
How many shared your fruit with me?
I saw the beauty in your oaks
I ate the apple from your tree
I thought I had you for myself
How many shared your fruit with me?
