Murky Waters Lyrics by Autoheart

I Can Build a Fire

2016

[Verse 1]
Was looking for a new release
A pocketful of serotonin
It had me right down on my knees
A rush of blood, it kept me going

[Pre-Chorus]
A little piece of heaven found
It only lasted for a little while
And then it all came crashing down
Down

[Chorus]
It's not the way I planned it
Don't you misunderstand it
I'll be running, I'll be running into murky waters
Your reputation's well known
I should have left you alone
I'll be running, I'll be running into murky waters

[Verse 2]
The day restricted and controlled
The night became my everything
The silhouettes came manifold
The stars above would dance and sing

[Pre-Chorus]
A fever burning bright and strong
In the middle of it all, how I ended up in Montreal
I'll never know but I can't let go
No

[Chorus]
It's not the way I planned it
Don't you misunderstand it
I'll be running, I'll be running into murky waters
Your reputation's well known
I should have left you alone
I'll be running, I'll be running into murky waters
It's not the way I planned it
Please don't leave me here stranded
I'll be running, I'll be running into murky waters

[Bridge]
I'll be running
I'll be running, baby
I'll be running
I'll be running
I'll be running
I-I'll be running, baby
I-I be running
I'll be— I'll be running
I'll be running, baby
I'll be run, run, run
I'll be-be-be run-running
I'll be running
I— I'll be running, baby
I-I be running

[Chorus]
It's not the way I planned it
Don't you misunderstand it
I'll be running, I'll be running into murky waters
Your reputation's well known
I should have left you alone
I'll be running, I'll be running into murky waters
It's not the way I planned it
Please don't leave me here stranded
I'll be running, I'll be running into murky waters

[Outro: Jody Gadsden & (Rebecca Bennett)]
(And I'll run, run, run
And I'll run, run, run
And I'll run, run, run
And I'll run, run, run)

I'll be running
I'll be running, baby
I'll be running
I'll be running
I'll be running
I'll be running, baby
I'll be running
I'll be running
