Run
Run

You caught my eye
So many times
Then one day it made sense
We smiled across
Scores of chalk lines
Still don't know why it makes sense
Cause you know this has changed
Much more than my name
And I will ease your pain
Maybe they'll call this insane
I see you now
We are still young
Cmon follow me there
I was so weak
Running from you
Honestly I'm still scared
We will not stay the same
We are more than our names
Inhale deep and take aim
Leave behind all the pain
With stolen hearts
Starting again
Meeting up with our friends
We'll shut them out
March to our own drums
Staying true till the end
Forget about all the pain
Start anew with this name
No we will never stay the same
We'll rise above all of the shame
[set to "Eyes On Fire" by Blue Foundation]
