Now You Run Away

[Verse]
I built a castle with paper walls
Taped it together with midnight calls
Now the rain’s come down
The ink just bleeds
Guess the fortress was never what it seemed
[Prechorus]
You run
You run
You run so far
Chasing shadows where the wild things are
[Chorus]
Now you run away
That’s ok
I’ll dance with the ghosts you left today
Now you run away
Far from here
But the echoes of you never disappear
[Verse 2]
I lit a match to the words you spoke
Watched them crumble
Dissolve in smoke
The fire’s cold now
It doesn’t burn
But ashes linger when there’s no return
[Chorus]
Now you run away
That’s ok
I’ll dance with the ghosts you left today
Now you run away
Far from here
But the echoes of you never disappear
[Bridge]
Your footprints fade in the pouring rain
But the rhythm stays
It loops in my brain
You said goodbye like a half-baked song
Now I’m stuck replaying what went wrong
