On the inside, a bird with a broken wing
Chances taken, now the dark angels circle in the wind
You're mistaken, but still you'll do it all again
As he shakes his fist, somethin' dribbles down his chin
Can you live like this
Just crawlin' underneath their skin
Chorus:
Better run...runaway, there is no reason to stay
Run...runaway
Better run...runaway, fast as these words that I say
Run...runaway
From the ashes you will rise
Distant crashes in your eyes
Though he's made you into an image of his pain
Cut and shaved you
Like a prisoner on a train
There are broken limbs
And tangled power lines
No songs like hymns
No flowers in the springtime
Chorus twice
I found your heart on valentine's day
I tore it apart, with all I do, with all I say
Just run....
Better run....runaway
There is no reason to stay
Run...runaway
You just run...runaway
Fast as these words that I say
Run...runaway
Better run....runaway
There is no reason to stay
Run...runaway
Better run...runaway
Fast as these words that I say
Run...runaway
On the outside, a beautiful thing On the inside, a bird with a broken wing Chances taken, now the dark angels circle in the wind You're mistaken, but still you'll do it all again As he shakes his fist, somethin' dribbles down his chin Can you live like this Just crawlin' underneath their skin Chorus: Better run...runaway, there is no reason to stay Run...runaway Better run...runaway, fast as these words that I say Run...runaway From the ashes you will rise Distant crashes in your eyes Though he's made you into an image of his pain Cut and shaved you Like a prisoner on a train There are broken limbs And tangled power lines No songs like hymns No flowers in the springtime Chorus twice I found your heart on valentine's day I tore it apart, with all I do, with all I say Just run.... Better run....runaway There is no reason to stay Run...runaway You just run...runaway Fast as these words that I say Run...runaway Better run....runaway There is no reason to stay Run...runaway Better run...runaway Fast as these words that I say Run...runaway Explain Request ×
