Run, run, run
It runs through my head
runs, runs, runs
Full speed,
regardless of my heart
SQUASH! Flattened
and starts over again
Run, crash, begin again
And while I'm trying to hold it together on the outside
I'm replaying your words and my thoughts
Being cut in the same spot
Over and over and over again
experiencing the pain
each and every time
...
You think you'll make it back
Fulfill your dream
And all will be fine
Death can't touch you, you're an Emory...
All I hear is I'm losing you
I'm losing you to reality
And you're eagerly running
Running for it, chasing it down
Jumping, jumping over the ledge
And there's nothing I can do to stop you
I can't stop the one I love
The one I'd lay down my own life for...
Helplessness is all I feel
But you keep running,
Hoping I'll be standing back here with a smile on my face
Enjoying these years you deserve too
Being a teenager, living life
But how can I do that when you refuse?
You refuse to just stop and enjoy what you have
Just stop running, this is all you have
Live your life,
Please don't rush
Because at the rate you're going,
I will never again feel your touch
See your smile
or your eyes glisten in the light
or even your face when you get pissed
Hear your voice.
or watch "Bubble" pop across my screen
Imagine you calling me "Bug"
or give you advice time and time again
Talk about storms
or the infamous huge teddy bear
or any other random thing we find to talk about
Never again will I get to be in your life.
My final memory being you running
Thinking you're invincible
And praying honestly for the first time in my life
Placing my hope in a staggering thought
Hoping this guy I call "God"
Is real
That He's really listening to me
And seeing how bad it kills me
To see you run, and jump
Into a fate
That hardly turns out right
...
...
...
It runs through my head
runs, runs, runs
Full speed,
regardless of my heart
SQUASH! Flattens my heart
and starts over again
Run, crash, begin again
And while I'm trying to hold it together on the outside
I'm coming undone on the inside...
runs, runs, runs
Full speed,
regardless of my heart
