Wesley Anne - Oh Runner

I've never known such empty eyes so well
I've never known someone to stray so far from themselves
I'll never know what you've left unsaid
As your broken heels paint the pavement red

Is there something out to get you,
Or are you lying to yourself?
Are you running from the past,
Or trying to be someone else?
Oh, runner, your feet hate the ground you're on.
Oh, runner don't trip, your body won't survive the fall.

I once gave you a piece of advice
That your chest was not made for your heart to hide.
You made me vow not to let you run
I never let you go but now you're gone

Is there something out to get you,
Or are you lying to yourself?
Are you running from the past,
Or trying to be someone else?
Oh, runner, your feet hate the ground you're on.
Oh, runner don't trip, your body won't survive the fall.

I tried to fix you, I really tried.
I moved mountains so you wouldn't have to climb.
Maybe it's my fault,
Maybe years are not enough,
Maybe I don't know you like I thought.

Is there something out to get you,
Or are you lying to yourself?
Are you running from the past,
Or trying to be someone else?
Oh, runner, your feet hate the ground you're on.
Oh, runner don't trip, your body won't survive the fall.

Oh, runner don't trip, your body won't survive the fall.
