Christina Perri – Run – Lyrics

Run by Christina Perri

Why do I breathe

With what's beating in my chest?

You'd think I'd learn better now

Cause I can't get any rest.

Cause I

Keep trying

To find happiness

In everybody else.

Please move that finger

That's been pointing to my mistakes.

I want no part

In the feelings you worst make.

So let go

And let me love you today...

And you're so damn difficult

You'd lose a heart in your hand

And I can't believe you'd make me work for it

Now I understand

Why I run as fast as I can.

And I can feel everything

I can feel your emptiness.

And I don't believe

There's a way out of this mess,

Unless, I

Can forgive

All your sins:

I will not-

I'll never laugh again.

Again.

See right through

My words.

See I'm just like you.

Watch me stomp on my sweet shoes.

All your lies

All your lies.

All your lies.

You're so damn difficult

You'd lose a heart in your hand

And I can't believe you'd make me work for it

Now I understand

Why I run as fast as I can.
