Runaway Lyrics by Despair

Hopeless

2018

[Verse 1]
Got everything in front of me, telling me to stay
But there’s this feeling like I need to run away
Baby, you called my phone, I didn’t know what to say
Got all these thoughts in my brain, it drives me insane
All these thoughts in my brain, drivin' me insane
Got all these thoughts in my brain, it drives me insane
Tell me where to go, tell me if I stay
I never wanted this shit anyway
I wish that I could change
I wish I could remain the same
Conflicting thoughts always haunting me
Always haunting me wherever I roam
Forever wandering, looking for home
Looking for a place to call my own
Where is my home, where am I from?

[Verse 2]
Eight days of the rain still won’t even wash away the pain
I cut my wrists, I watch the blood flow right into the drain
You called my phone, I didn’t even know what to say
I see visions of you screaming my name
Take me back to the old days
I wish that I could change, I’m so stuck in my fucking ways
I need to run away, I need to run away
I need to get away, I need to go today
