Oceans In My Mind

Running

I ran to you.
After she said those things.

I ran to you.
When she hurt you.

I ran to you.
Everytime she did it.

I ran to you.
Again and again.

I ran to your side.
After all the lies she told you.

I ran miles.
To get to you.

I ran circles around your heart.
Trying to get through to your head.

I ran everyday she deceived you.
I ran.

She gave you nothing but hurt.
And I ran to mend it.

I continued to tell you.
She was no good.

And I fought everyday by your side.
To get rid of her.

I ran to you.
I gave you truth.

I ran to fix what she broke.
And you still chose her.

I gave you advice hoping you'd take it.
And in one ear out the other it went.

I hope you know.
I won't run forever.

I ran to you everytime.
Everytime.

When you gave her an inch.
She took a mile.

You let her in again and again.
After I had saved you.

You took my words for granted.
I ran to you.

And I told you not to go back.
I warned you it was a bad idea.

I ran to you.
And you still gave in to her.

You still let her push you around.
You still ran back to her.

Maybe I'm the fool.
Running to you like things will change.

I ran to you.
Praying you would stop this.

I'm not even religious.
And I still hoped you'd learn your lesson.

I ran to you.
And you didn't stop.

You didn't wait.
You didn't even glance back.

I ran to you.
The same way you ran to her.

How many times before you realize?
The average is 7 times.

You're at 3.
Maybe even 4.

How long before you find out I was right.
That I seen this coming.

That I warned you.
And I ran to you.

I continued to run to you
And you continued to chase her.

I gave you every prime reason not to do what you did.
And you did it.

I will never give in as easily.
But I would still run to you.

I will keep running because I care.
Whether you do or not doesn't matter.

Its my fatal flaw.
I love to much.

I will run.
Everytime she hurts you.

I will run.
Even after she lies.

I will run.
Miles and miles.

I will run.
Because I love you.

I will run.
Because she won't.

I will run.
To prove her wrong.

I will run.
To prove to you she could never.

The manipulation.
The deceitfulness.

The lies.
The hurting.

I will run.
For you.

I will run.
To save you.

I will run.
Every damn time she fucks up.

It will always be me.
Running.

Running to your side.
The nights you cry over her.

The days she breaks you.
The times she lies.

It will be me.
Not her.

Me.
Running.
