I remember what I heard,
I remember what you said,
I remember what I listened to,
I want to run away.
Cynicism's what I heard,
Crazy's what I heard you say,
"I don't know" is what I listened to,
I want to run away.
Pressure, crazy, emotions void,
"I don't know what to say",
Is all you ever said,
I want to runaway.
Don't put those words in a place unbelonged,
For I guarantee they'll never return,
Not in my dictionary,
I want to run away.
If cynicism's what you have,
Then cynicism's what I'll take,
I ponder what is most cynical,
I want to run away.
Thinking hard I ask myself,
The truest of cynicism,
"Do I want all this topsey-turvey?"
I want to run away.
A simple kiss is what it was,
Caught in the perfect light,
Momentary recovery,
I want to run away.
A brief sight and wanting to say hi,
I see myself before a pond and don't,
Four days later the tears run dry,
I want to run away.
The question's true and that is all,
Under its shadow is where it's fallen,
This little light of mine,
I want to run away.
My head is gone, my heart up-down,
Do I want? Most certainly do,
Yes I want the topsey-turvey,
I want to run away.
Not thinking straight and yet I want,
Feelings intense, but totally shunned,
And yet I want, no hurt ever present,
I want to run away.
All above and all before,
The loss of mind stable for,
One thing: a real you,
I want to run away.
Love is all and love is above,
Thus, to do and push is,
To make love a lesser god,
I want to run away.
Doubt, paranoia, fear, emotions void,
Are love's contenders and easily beat,
For nothing need happen,
I want to run away.
As I run away
I leave fear and paranoia down,
Pressure gone,
I'm running away.
My tears leave doubt,
Swimming in its own wake,
Doubt is gone,
I'm running away.
Writing this gives me hope that,
Every time I walk away I wish,
For love to give you reason so,
You won't let me run away.
