Lyrics The Running - John The Blind

See from my point of view
I was miles ahead from anybody else
Yeah-yeah
Turns out I was never alone in this race
For your body and yourself
And again, and again, let my heart beat for you
And then you broke it on the floor, oh
Swept me under the table
Closed up and you never opened the door

It's a shame you didn't let me know
I wasn't even in the running, no
There's someone else you holding onto now
But you kept me around
You kept me
It's a shame you didn't let me know
I wasn't even in the running, no
There's someone else you holding onto now
But you kept me around, mmm, mm
You kept me

Hangin' on the words, when you didn't mean them no
Holdin' on for life, when I should'a took it slow
Turnin' off the lights, lettin' you become a ghost
I should have been careful
I should have been careful

It's a shame you didn't let me know
I wasn't even in the running, no
There's someone else you holding onto now
But you kept me around
You kept me
It's a shame you didn't let me know
I wasn't even in the running, no
There's someone else you holding onto now
But you kept me around, mmm, mm
You kept me

And I try, try, try to keep up up with you
'Cause I could have been what you wanted
And I lie, lie, lie when I say I'm over you
'Cause I'm not over you
No I'm not

It's a shame you didn't let me know
I wasn't even in the running, no
There's someone else you holding onto now
But you kept me around, mmm, mm
You kept me
It's a shame you didn't let me know
I wasn't even in the running
