verse 1
Em Bm A
The water's frozen to ice
Em Bm A
We opened up the floodgates far too late this time
G D A
I've been a thorn in your side
Em Bm A
The exit wound is clean but still it won't heal right
Em Bm A
I hope we make it tonight
Em Bm A
But there's no happy ending, we just run out of time
Chorus 1
G D
That's why I run for my life, you're exposing a side
A
That has made me alive for so long
G
Cause you took off my brilliant disguise
D A
And you showed me someone I don't know
G D
And you took all my narcissist lies that I need to survive
A
That have made me alone for so long
D Em A
Oh, I close my eyes and run
verse 2
Em Bm A
I know I'm bent back inside
Em Bm A
I know that everything we had is gone now, I lied
Chorus 2
G D
That's why I run for my life, you're exposing a side
A
That has made me alive for so long
G
Cause you took off my brilliant disguise
D A
And you showed me someone I don't know
G D
And you took all my narcissist lies that I need to survive
A
That have made me alone for so long
G D
And you say as you're waving your goodbyes you can't stand it by my side
A D
Because all I ever do is run
