I don't want you to give it all up and leave your own life
collecting dust. And I don't want you to feel sorry for me. You

never gave us a chance to be. And I don't need you to be by my side
to tell me that everything's alright. I just wanted you to tell me
the truth. You know I'd do that for you.
So why are you running away?
Why are you running away?
Cause I did enough to show you that I was willing to give and
sacrifice. And I was the one who was lifting you up when you
thought your life had had enough. And when I get close you turn
away. There's nothing that I can do or say. So now I need you to
tell me the truth. You know I'd do that for you.
So why are you running away?
Why are you running away?
Is it me? Is it you? Nothing that I can do to make you change your
mind. Is it me? Is it you? Nothing that I can do. Is it a waste
of time?
Is it me? Is it you? Nothing that I can do to make you
change your mind.
So why are you running away?
Why are you running away? (What is it I have to say?)
So why are you running away? (To make you admit you're afraid)
Why are you running away?
