Running Away From Me lyrics

[Verse 1]
Lying awake, I'm stuck in my own head
Thinking of everything I've done that got me here
I don't know if I can even keep pretending
That I'm happy with the way I am

[Pre-Chorus]
If I could change, I'd change it all
But with every step I fall
Back to the start and start again
The same

[Chorus]
Running away from me
Running to something that I can't see
'Cause it's not who I want to be
But I can't change
So I keep running away from
The thing that I've always been
The temptation that lies within
Feel it begging me to give in
And I can't change
So I'll keep on running, running away

[Verse 2]
Every mistake I make, I'm thinking about how I
I do it to myself every single goddamn time
I'm wondering if I'm even worth a try
Or if I'm too far gone to turn back now
[Pre-Chorus]
Selling my soul, and bound in chains
So I try to numb the pain
Filling the hole that's in my heart
So I stay

[Chorus]
Running away from me
Running to something that I can't see
'Cause it's not who I want to be
But I can't change
So I keep running away from
The thing that I've always been
The temptation that lies within
Feel it begging me to give in
And I can't change
So I'll keep on running, running away

[Bridge]
And I know I can't control the things I've been through (Yeah)
I can't begin to
I run away and hide
Never knowing it's myself I'm running into
But I'm still lost in my own lies

[Chorus]
Running away from me
Running to something that I can't see
'Cause it's not who I want to be
But I can't change
So I keep running away from
The thing that I've always been
The temptation that lies within
Feel it begging me to give in
And I can't change
So I'll keep on running, running away
[Outro]
Running away from me
Running to something that I can't see
'Cause it's not who I want to be
But I can't change
Running away from
The thing that I've always been
The temptation that lies within
Feel it begging me to give in
And I can't change
So I'll keep on running, running away
