Tessa Violet - Runaway

Copied!
{verse 1}
I was born come on the break of spring
Mama told me i got joy to bring
But i got something buried in my soul
Nothing ever seemed to make me whole
I got on my knees and learned to pray
God, if you're the one then i will stay
But i was given wings to fly away
I keep my word as long as i'm okay
{chorus}
So tell me what it means my fingers on the strings
I'm praying i got something worth the breath it takes to say
And i don't understand why i should get the chance
While in my dreams my teeth are crumbling out into my hands
When i can't earn this plan
{verse 2}
I wish that i were better at goodbyes
I don't connect with what would make you cry
I guess there's something different in my head
But i'll pretend i understand instead
You think i found a place where i belong
But nothing keeps me rooted here for long
I'd rather travel to a stranger place
Then recognized as a familiar face
{chorus}
So tell me what it means my fingers on the strings
I'm praying i got something worth the breath it takes to say
And i don't understand why i should get the chance
While in my dreams my teeth are crumbling out into my hands
When i can't earn this plan
{bridge}
I i i i
When i can't earn this plan
I i i-i
And i don't understand
I i i-i
Why i should get this chance
I i i-i
{verse 3}
I'm afraid of running out of days
Tell me everything will be okay
I think i am better on my own
But mama i'm afraid to die alone
