Runner Runner Album

When you feel you're alone
Cut off from this cruel world
Your instincts telling you to run
Listen to your heart
Those angel faces
They'll see you to you
They'll be your guide
Back home where life leaves us blind
Love keeps us kind
It keeps us kind

When you suffered it all
And your spirit is breaking
You're growing desperate from the fight
Remember your love
And you always will be
This melody will bring you right back home

When life leaves us blind
Love keeps us kind

I'm swimming in the smoke
Of bridges I have burned
So don't apologize
I'm losing what I don't deserve
The blame is mine alone
The bridges I have burned
So don't apologize
I'm losing what I don't deserve
What I don't deserve

She's an angel in disguise
You can see it in her eyes
I could never give up the fight
And I'll be waiting at her door
But I don't wanna wait no more
So take me right now

Who do you want?
It's more than a crush
Loving you only gave me papercuts
Something so real
Taught me never to trust
Loving you only gave me papercuts
You gave me papercuts

Now I'm walking close behind
Keep rehearsing all my lines
If she'd turn around just one time
I could tell her how I feel
That we need to make this real
So give me a chance to be here right now
(Be here right now)

Who do you want?
It's more than a crush
Loving you only gave me papercuts
Something so real
Taught me never to trust
Loving you only gave me papercuts
You gave me papercuts
You gave me papercuts

I've got nothing to talk about
It's out of my head now
These are the last words I'll write to you
Stuck in the real world
Caught in the typical
Now if she only had a clue

Who do you want?
(Who do you want?)
It's more than a crush
It's more than just papercuts

Who do you want?
It's more than a crush
Loving you only gave me papercuts
Something so real
Taught me never to trust
Loving you only gave me papercuts

Who do you want?
It's more than a crush
Loving you only gave me papercuts
Something so real
Taught me never to trust
Loving you only gave me papercuts
You gave me papercuts
You gave me papercuts
You gave me papercuts
(Papercuts)

Like a heart attack
She got me laid up on my back

She's waiting in the dark again tonight
(Forget about reality)
Never really cared for wrong or right
(Now she's got a hold of me)
What she does to me
It's like a sweet disease
And it's only the first time
I need to take control
(Need to take control)

Because the girl looks like a heart attack
She got me laid up on my back
She's got my heart locked up in a little box
And she knows it, she knows it

She takes me by the hand and leads the way
(Baby)
She looks into my eyes like I'm her prey
(She's gone and got the best of me)
She's a runaway with no place to go
And it's always the right time
She needs to take control
(Need to take control)

Because the girl looks like a heart attack
She got me laid up on my back
She's got my heart locked up in a little box
And she knows it, she knows it

Tick tock on the clock
Just don't stop
She knows it, she knows it

She's waiting in the dark with her little black heart
Like a killer ...
Oh, baby, baby

(God, I can't breathe)

Because the girl looks like a heart attack
She got me laid up on my back
She's got a little black box where she keeps my heart
She knows it, she knows it

Because the girl looks like a heart attack
She got me laid up on my back
She's got my heart locked up in a little box, yeah
She knows it, she knows it

Tick tock on the clock
Just don't stop
She knows it, she knows it

The girl looks like a heart attack
She got me laid up on my back

Says she wants to move to California
To chase down her dream.
Says she wants the role in some big movie
Be a drama queen.

Well I'll roll with her
So she won't get hurt.
Here it is, I'll lay it out for you
Here it is, I'm telling you the truth.

Hey Alli, I'm
falling faster all the time.
Hey Alli, take
this heart of mine.
I'm in too deep,
I fall to my knees.
She's the girl of my dreams.

Says she wants to move to New York City
And dance on the stage.
On the crowded streets you look so pretty
In the pouring rain.

Well I'll roll with her
So she won't get hurt.
Here it is, I'll lay it out for you
Here it is, I'm telling you the truth.

Hey Alli, I'm
falling faster all the time.
Hey Alli, take
this heart of mine.
I'm in too deep,
I fall to my knees.
She's the girl of my dreams. (Hey Alli, Alli)
She's the girl of my dreams.

And if I fall apart
Just know these words are true. (Know these words are true)
And if I fall....

Hey Alli, I'm
falling faster all the time.
Hey Alli, I'm
falling faster all the time.
Hey Alli, take
this heart of mine.
I'm in too deep
I fall to my knees.
She's the girl of my dreams. (Hey Alli, Alli)

Hey Alli, I'm
falling faster all the time.
Hey Alli, take
this heart of mine.
I'm in too deep
I fall to my knees.
She's the girl of my knees.

Catching my breath
You had a hold on me
Not much left
All just a memory
You left me high and dry

No, I can't breathe underwater, babe
You're killing me
Your dirty little games are telling me
I'm dying for you
(Dying for you)

So what now?

I wanna breathe now
I can live again
Scream out loud every now and then
Go and get back everything
You took from me
I wanna get back friends I used to know
Stay out late at the killer show
Ridin' downtown like we used to do
And just be me

I wanna breathe, I wanna be
I wanna sing, I wanna believe
All the things I can do
There's life after you
(There's life after you)

Letting go
Now the worst is over
You should know I'm okay
I'm so moving on
I'm so over you

So what now?
(So what now?)

I wanna breathe now
I can live again
Scream out loud every now and then
Go and get back everything
You took from me
I wanna get back friends I used to know
Stay out late at the killer show
Ridin' downtown like we used to do
And just be me

I wanna breathe, I wanna be
I wanna sing, I wanna believe
All the things I can do
There's life after you

Don't you come 'round here no more
I feel more like me without you
With you
... is so wrong
I got to be moving on

So what now?

I wanna breathe now
I can live again
Scream out loud every now and then
Go and get back everything
You took from me
I wanna get back friends I used to know
Stay out late at the killer show
Ridin' downtown like we used to do
And just be me

I wanna breathe now
I can live again
Scream out loud every now and then
Go and get back everything
You took from me

I wanna breathe, I wanna be
I wanna sing, I wanna believe
All the things I can do
There's life after you
There's life after you
There's life after you

He's trying just to live his life
He's trying just to make things right
Always so misunderstood
His thoughts shatter like glass
Nobody knows how long it's gonna last
Remember times that were good

Makes you wonder
Was it ever real?
Makes you wonder
If we need to feel anything, anyone
Is there something else behind those eyes?

When you think you're falling
Just get up, just get up
I can hear you calling
Don't give up, don't give up
Never gonna let you go
Never gonna lose control
When you think you're falling
Just get up

She's holding back what's inside
Always got something to hide
Never escape her dreams
She's lost out on her alone
Looking for a way with a love so dull
Falling apart at the seams

Makes you wonder
Was it ever real?
Makes you wonder
If we need to feel anything, anyone
Is there something else behind those eyes?

When you think you're falling
Just get up, just get up
I can hear you calling
Don't give up, don't give up
Never gonna let you go
Never gonna lose control
When you think you're falling
Just get up

Just get up, just get up
Just get up, just get up

When you think you're falling
Just get up, just get up
I can hear you calling
Don't give up, don't give up

When you think you're falling
Just get up, just get up
I can hear you calling
Don't give up, don't give up
Never gonna let you go
Never gonna lose control
When you think you're falling
Just get up

When you think you're falling
(Just get up, just get up)
When you think you're falling
(Falling)

You say you're not gonna fight
'cause no one would fight for you
And you think there's not enough love
And no one to give it to
And you're sure you've hurt for so long
You've got nothing left to lose
So you say you're not gonna fight
'cause no one would fight for you

You say the weight of the world
Has kept you from letting go
And you think compassion's a fault
And you'll never let it show
And you're sure you hurt in a way
That no one will ever know
But someday the weight of the world
Will give you the strength to go

Hold on, the weight of the world
Will give you the strength to go

Viel zu lang hast du gesucht
Doch keinen Weg gefunden
Du hast alles schon versucht
Dich bis zum Schluss gewunden

Bis du begreifst…

Es ist vorbei
Alles bricht entzwei
Jede Hoffnung, jede Tr?umerei
Es ist vorbei

Dir wird nur noch mit Spott gedankt
Und jedes Wort verbogen…
Wenn L?gen alles sind was bleibt
Wird dies kein Tag wie and're sein

Denn du begreifst…

Es ist vorbei
Alles bricht entzwei
Jede Hoffnung, jede Tr?umerei
Es ist vorbei

Im Stillen hoffst du noch drauf
S'ist nur ein Traum
Dann wachst du auf
Und endlich siehst du ein…

The way you curse while we're in traffic
A million flavors of your chapstick
The way you keep my heart captive

The Journey concert in AZ
Remember we sang faithfully?
I still got that old hotel room key

This is the way I feel

'Cause I can't wait for you to be my wife
To live this life together
And I won't let you go
I need you to know
That you are my heart, forever
And on and on and on

The way you like to sing my songs
You always know when something's wrong
The way you say you miss me when I'm gone

The things you do that show you care
You're always down for truth or dare
Freeze this moment; let me stop and stare

Nothing before was real
This is the way I feel

And I can't wait for you to be my wife
To live this life together
And I won't let you go
I need you to know
That you are my heart, forever
And on and on and on
And we'll go on and on and on

For better or for worse
No matter how it hurts
You've got me to hold you hand
I promise you the world
In your wedding dress
We'll dance till no one's left
Don't wanna blink my eyes
Don't wanna miss a thing

I can't wait for you to be my wife
To live this life together
And I won't let you go
I need you to know
That you are my heart, forever

And I can't wait for you to be my wife
To live this life together
And I won't let you go
I need you to know
That you are my heart, forever
And on and on and on
And we'll go on and on and on

There's a time, when the operation of the machine becomes so odious.
Makes you so sick at heart, that you can't take part, you can't even passively take part.
And you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers,
upon all the apparatus. And you've got to make it stop!

To save face / how low can you go
Talk a lot of game but yet you don't know
Static on the way / make us all say whoa
The people up top push the people down low
Get down
And obey every word
Steady getting mine if you haven't yet heard
Wanna take what I got / don't be absurd
Don't fight the power / nobody gets hurt
If you haven't heard yet then I'm letting you know
There ain't shit we don't run when the guns unload
And no one make a move unless my people say so
Got everything outta control
Now everybody go

Steel unload / final blow
We the animals take control
Hear us now / clear and true
Wretches and kings we come for you

So keep pace / how slow can you go
Talk a lot of shit and yet you don't know
Fire on the way / make you all say whoa
The people up top and the people down low
Get down
And I'm running it like that
The front of the attack is exactly where I'm at
Somewhere in between the kick and the hi hat
The pen and the contract
The pitch and the contact
So get with the combat / I'm letting 'em know
There ain't shit you can say to make me back down no
So / push the button let the whole thing blow
Spinning everything outta control
Now everybody go

Steel unload / final blow
We the animals take control
Hear us now / clear and true
Wretches and kings we come for you
Steel unload / fire blow
Filthy animals / beat them low
Skin and bone / black and blue
No more this sun shall beat onto you

From the front to the back and the side to side
If you fear what I feel put 'em up real high

He lies awake, mad at the world
He never felt so small
He made mistakes, he's messed around
Let others take the fall
He's been abused, sad, and confused
Convinced he knew it all
Now he don't know which way to go
Too scared to make the call

Running away from yourself
When you're alone, you got nobody else
Open your eyes
You can see it clearly
Running away

Her head's a mess
She's second best
This girl's the last to know
Just needs a chance to find romance
Someone to love her so
She's got a light so deep inside
Without a chance to grow
And now the blue sky turns to black
The winds begin to blow
Winds begin to blow

Running away from yourself
When you're alone, you got nobody else
Open your eyes
You can see it clearly
Running away

All of the times you turned away
(You turned away)
I know it's never easy
(I know it's never easy)
And when you fall, you'll never stay
I know it's never easy
I know it's never easy
Not easy

Running away from yourself
When you're alone, you got nobody else
Open your eyes
You can see it clearly
Running away [x2]
