"Run." lyrics

"Run."

I don't think you wanted it
Not like I wanted it
You forgave the razor, chewed and swallowed it
With a mouth full of blood for the grudge
Spit on the foundation, the only thing that ever held you up

And then you lied about the reason
Until that reason got taken away
I bet it shined like a beacon
And when the shine got taken away
I said

I know everything about the struggle
I know everything about the shame
Never thought that razor would dull so much
And be able to cut so clean
Ain't ever been the type to run away
I ain't ever leavin'
Ain't ever been the type to run away from shit
I ain't ever leavin'

And when your mind gets to seething
You gotta bury that bullshit away
You got caught up not believing
The one thing you were trying to say

I know everything about destruction
I know everything about decay
Never thought that razor would dull so much
And be able to cut so fucking clean
Ain't ever been the type to run away
I ain't ever leaving
Ain't ever been the type to run away from shit
I ain't ever leavin', I ain't ever leavin'

And I can't stop my brain
I can't stop the words, I can't explain
The joy it brings to get what I deserve
And it's a middle finger, it's a Cheshire grin
An amalgamation of fucked up things
So come hell or high water, we burn or we swim
But we're never giving in

Didn't I say run?
Didn't I say, didn't I?
Didn't I say run?
Ain't ever been the type to run away
Ain't ever been the type to run away
I ain't ever leavin'
I ain't ever leavin'
I never owed you anything

And I can't stop my brain
I can't stop the words, I can't explain
The joy it brings to get what I deserve
And it's a middle finger, it's a cheshire grin
An amalgamation of fucked up things
So come hell or high water, we burn or we swim
But we're never giving in
