Girl on the Run Lyrics by Torrey Mercer

Boys/Girls - EP

2020

[Verse 1]
Girl on the run
Got started young
Cause all the kids got bored and started making fun
Of who she was and when she’d gone
Now she’s wanted
Stay away they’ve got a gun
[Verse 2]
They like her blond
They like her fun
They like her when she keeps herself from everyone
And if she falls, well then she’s done
The hunters feast on her remains
They know they won
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Ooooh, ooooh
She don’t know why she’s running
Ooooh, ooooh
Too afraid of what’s coming
[Chorus 1]
She thinks she’s gotta
She thinks, she thinks she’s gotta be perfect
She thinks she’ll never
She thinks, she’s thinks she’ll never be worth it
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 3]
Girl on the run
She fell in love
He picked up all the pieces in the Cali sun
She lost herself under his thumb
Somebody wanted her
She couldn’t give that up
[Verse 4]
He likes her strong
He likes her soft
He likes “girl next door”
And “cool girl” when she fucks
But she falls mascara runs
He goes out just like he came and she feels numb
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Ooooh, ooooh
She don’t know why she’s crying
Ooooh, ooooh
Too afraid of dying
[Chorus 2]
She thinks she’s gotta
She thinks, she thinks she’s gotta be perfect
She thinks she’ll never
She thinks, she’s thinks she’ll never be worth it
I’m just the girl on the run
[Chorus 3]
I think I’ve gotta
I think, I think I’ve gotta be perfect
I think I’ll never
I think, I think I’ll never be worth it
[Verse 5]
Girl on the run
She’s finally done
With everything and everywhere and everyone
Hated myself until I won
Cause now I know that I’m worth more than anything they’ve ever done
Done
More than anything they’ve ever done, done
Ohhh, ohhh, ohhh, ohh oh
[Chorus 4]
I think I’ll never
I think, I think I’ll never be perfect
I think I’m gonna
I think, I think I’m gonna be worth it
No more girl on the run
[Chorus 4]
I think I’ll never
I think, I think I’ll never be perfect
I think I’m gonna
I think, I think I’m gonna be worth it
