Oh, Run Away

Oh, run away
Run away and survive
Survive while I fall apart
Survive while my world crumbles
Survive without me.

Oh, run away
Run away from emotions
Run away from attachment
Make the distance farther than it is
Run away from us and just be you.

Oh, run away
Run away from happiness
Run away from sadness
Feeling one would mean the other
So run, run away.

Oh, run away
Run away from love
Because loving could mean losing
Loving could mean grieving
Loving could make your heart stop
So run, run away.

Oh, run away
Run from everything you care for
Because it might get stripped away
Push it away before it can leave you
Trust nothing, no one.
Lock your heart up in a box,
Harden it to affection
Be content in your loneliness
Because it's safer that way
And run, run away.
