Lyrics: Darryl James/Hank Compton
Music: Darryl James/Hank Compton
You wanna be better than
The person that you've become
Desperate I try to fix it for you
It’s not enough it never was
I’ve been giving while I hold my hand out
But maybe once I could fix it for you
Like a roll of film inside my brain
I keep seeing the night I saw you
Like i'm standing in the pouring rain
And you won’t let me in when I need you to
I realize that I can’t make
You take the love I tried to give out
I hate to say that it was all for you
You’re hanging with that group of friends
You said you never cared much about
I hope they give what I did for you
I’m sorry that you always felt
Like you were afraid of yourself
Cause honestly I wouldn’t change it
I just wish that you could face it
Oh Oh
Fell into your arms and you let me slip right
through Oh
I gave you what you want but it still couldn’t fix you
All the things I do
Fighting for the truth
That I don’t have to prove
I’m not scared to lose
I don’t want to be a runner I just wanna be your runaway
I don’t want to be a runner I just wanna be your runaway
I don’t want to be a runner I just wanna be your runaway
I don’t want to be a runner I just wanna be your runaway
You wanna be better than
The person you have become
Desperate I can’t give it to you
