The Runaway Lyrics by Sommy Lovell

Angels & Diamonds

2014

[Verse 1]
Beautiful adolescent, Lord forgive her protect her
For down the hall is the greatest lesson you ever taught her
She is in love with a liar and with his words he bought her
Got stuck when them feelings caught her
How everything that she wanted to hear he told her and slowly they're growing closer
She opens up to a poser, believes he'd never oppose her and subsequently it's love
A dove for today and a crow for tomorrow for what the crystal ball never showed
And so, they're on the road to go
To where her previous couldn't take her, it's heaven like he's her maker
So far just a couple of weeks, to a couple of months
It's something different, a couple things were missing
But couples go past the bumps and so they get over and she would think that's over
Then arguments grow in numbers and over time she's up under the light
Know when her conscious is right
But it's no matter when in her heart she couldn't concede
They're moving faster and the truest colors start to appear on the canvas
What he had showed at whim was the product of the advantage
Gone were the remnants of a Cinderella's dignity
His word talks 'em out of priorities and virginity
The smoke in the air in drinking alone to heightened decibels when he's around her
He's a shell of the man he was on the day that he found her
Or what she thought he was but closing in on 12 months today she still proclaims the love
And optimism for getting better would vanish
The night she wouldn't concur or listen he puts his hands on his woman
Tears rush and the mark is vivid she threatens to leave
But another blow to the temple had then left her to bleed
See then she's allowing acknowledgments and I love you's to override it all
Man somebody save her, from what the dawn'll hold
Higher up don't forsake her, the fear of her being alone consumes feelings
You couldn't help her because
[Hook]
We don't know
And we don't grow
If only I can see through your vision
If only I could breathe for minute, and go
But I've been running for my whole life
Said I've been running for my whole life
So if I burn today, that's how it supposed to be
[Verse 2]
Beautiful adolescent, Lord forgive her protect her
She's putting her hands together, she says forgive him; she loves him
Unpredictable and striking more
But it happens so much, she claims she don't even feel it no more
And her peers see it
Their dearest friend needs the help that she doesn't want
They believe it, she rejects and so be it
His work has separated her from all relations outside of theirs
Strategically from all who cared in order to cover up
She's applying cover up to accommodate lying to her mother
When the time's late and arriving all for his sake
The angel is torn and she morns the strongest she used to be
To go back before it was born she's asking what happened to me
Is this what it's supposed to be? The love of my life
And really what's wrong and what's right and feelings she sure couldn't fight
Infatuated with what it means, confused about what it seems
The horrors of wondering if the angel'll make it tonight
That's without war of words and intoxication, toxic wasting, clock is racing
The cops are chasing novice pacing while the Glock is facing
Her in the passenger seat and then what engulfs her mind is
Can I withstand if there's no difference? Father get behind this
Always in vision but she could attain it on this night
A sacred but tainted symbol to finish off the fight
As the demons provide a passage way to freedom
A radical product of senses saying you won't need him
Roll up to the empty destination he takes the weapon, tucks it in the rear and
A few moments preceded forcing her when all was clear and
With potent thoughts she pushes off, the rush had made her able
He's on the floor, his eyes lit up, the gun fell on the table
Then charges up, she races to it, heart'll make her lose it
Aims the barrel, pulls the trigger, tells him you had made me do it
And from her knees, see from afar
She yanks the keys, gets in the car
You couldn't stop her because
[Hook]
