[Verse 1]
Suitcase by the front door
Coffee getting cold in my hand
Your picture on the fridge
I can't even look, I can't
Car keys on the counter
Name on a crumpled note
I write "I have to go"
Then cross it out, then choke
[Chorus]
So I run from the ruins of us
Down back roads, through dust
With your voice in my lungs, still calling
If I stay, I break
If I go, I ache
Either way, this heart keeps falling
I'm just running away from a heartbreak
That keeps running after me
[Verse 2]
Radio is buzzing
I let the silence win
Mile signs like questions
As the daylight thins
Every town looks like you
Same porch, same tired light
I keep checking my mirror
You’re there in my eyes
[Chorus]
So I run from the ruins of us
Down back roads, through dust
With your voice in my lungs, still calling
If I stay, I break
If I go, I ache
Either way, this heart keeps falling
I'm just running away from a lost love
That keeps running after me
[Bridge]
Maybe in some other life
We'd fix what we couldn't fix here (oh)
But I only know how to leave
When I'm drowning in fear
[Chorus]
So I run from the ruins of us
Down back roads, through dust
With your voice in my lungs, still calling
If I stay, I break
If I go, I ache
Either way, this heart keeps falling
I'm just running away from a heartbreak
That keeps running after me
