RUNAWAY (w/ orchestra) Songtext
von half•alive

I′ve been searching, nothing's working
I′ve been tripping, no one's perfect
Chasing vision, just the surface
Shirt's on backwards, not on purpose, yeah

I′ve been learning, something bigger
Expectations, feet were failing
I found blessings flowing from
The sight of heaven

Staring into my reflection
Redirecting my perfection somewhere else (Ooh)
When there isn′t any progress
Not even truth inside the promise, it is well (Ooh)

I hold my life out in front of me, dreams of who I want to be
And seeing every empty page
But I find that everything I am, is everything I should be
I don't need to run away (Oh)
I don′t need to run away (Oh)
I don't need to run away (Oh)


Something′s working, heart is churning
Vision's clearing, still I′m learning
That what I am, what I am, what I am, what I am
Is something more than I can plan
Go, tell me now!
I don't need to run away

I've been standing on a stage with just a mirror
Forced to face who I′ve become (Ooh)
Searching for a new escape
I scan the exits that embrace an easy life (Ooh)

Hold my life out in front of me, dreams of who I want to be
I′m seeing every empty page
But I find that everything I am is everything I shouldn't be
I don′t need to run away (Oh)
I don't need to run away (Oh)
I don′t need to run away (Oh)

I don't need to run away (I don′t need to run away, oh)
I don't need to run away
I don't need to run away
But I don′t need to run away
