Run Lyrics by Daughter

Demos EP

2012

[Verse 1]
While I powder my nose
He will powder his gums
And if I try to get close
He is already gone
Don't know where he's going
Don't know where he's been
But he is restless at night
'Cause he has horrible dreams
So we lay in the dark
We got nothing to say
Just the beating of hearts
Like two drums in the gray
I don't know what we're doing
I don't know what we've done
But the fire is coming
So I think we should run
I think we should

[Hook]
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run

[Verse 2]
While I put on my shoes
He will button his coat
And we will step outside
Checking that the coast is
Clear on both sides
Cause we don't want to be seen now
This is suicide
But you can't see the ropes
And I won't tell my mother
It's better she don't know
And he won't tell his folks
'Cause they're already ghosts
And we'll just keep each other
As safe as we can
Until we reach the border
Until we make our plan

[Hook]
To run, run, run, run
To run, run, run, run
To run, run, run, run

[Bridge]
Will you stay with me, my love
For another day?
'Cause I don't want to be alone
When I'm in this state
Will you stay with me, my love
'Till we're old and gray?
'Cause I don't want to be alone
When these bones decay

[Hook]
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run
Run
