Lyrics Make - Emily Afton

Why are you always running away? Well, get gone
Why are you always stuck in this phase? You could be done
I know that you're running to stay, stay out of the sun
Baby, I don't want you to change, but become

I hear that you're gunning for fate, baby, I'm gone
And I just can't keep up with the chase and it's long
I know you're searching for space, space in these songs
Baby, I don't want you to change, to belong

(Can you really run?)
(Can you really run?)

And I could see you're run down
(Baby, can you outrun your own self now?)
Baby, I could see you're run down
(Baby, can you outrun your own self now?)

And I could see you're run down
(Baby, can you outrun your own self now?)
And I could see you're run down
(Baby, can you outrun your own self now?)

I'm so tired of running away
Why you always running away and writing sad songs?
Such a tired trope
Such a lost soul, pitiful, we should've known
All along, this life was all you had

So why don't you make something beautiful for the world
Without a motive?
Why don't you fall in love and tell the world
All about it?

Why don't you set your stage without a curse?
Without a deed or debt to pay?
I know it's so much harder than to dream
But the first step is stepping, babe

Baby, I could see you're run down
(Baby, can you outrun your own self now?)
Baby, I could see you're run down
(Baby, can you outrun your own self now?)

And I could see you're run down
(Baby, can you outrun your own self now?)
And I could see you're run down
(Baby, can you outrun your own self now?)

So why don't you make something beautiful for the world
Without a motive?
Why don't you fall in love and tell the world
All about it?

Why don't you set your stage without a curse?
Without a deed or debt to pay?
I know it's so much harder than to dream
But the first step is stepping, babe
