Run

What did I do wrong this time?
How can I still sleep at night?
When she is crying somewhere
On her own, we’re on our own
Everyone feels alone sometimes

I’m in a cave, which way is the light?
I must behave, cuz I’ll pay for these lies
And she is smiling to herself
All alone, put down the phone
Everyone needs to go home sometimes

You be the pretty one, I’ll be your pirate
I see the beast in you but you’re too scared to ride it
You’re such a sweet thing, you’re sting is silent
You bring the peace to it, I’ll bring the fire

I’ll be the dream that you never knew you had
I’ll be the scream in the screams that drive you mad
I’ll be the pilot fish, I’ll bring the rain
Run little pretty thing run, I will eat your simple life away

I’ll be the dream, I’ll be the one
I’ll be the thing that makes you go on
I’ll be your strength, I’ll keep you safe
I’ll be the one thing in your life that will never change
