I live in a dream
Or no one else is living in reality
'Cause my words don't connect
And my esteem is wrecked, yeah
The crowd around me
Well they're gonna drown me
In their unceasing needs
Their mad insecurities, yeah
I'll run away, I'll run away
Maybe I'll get back to you someday
And maybe you'll love me anyway
Well so self-serving
Everybody's so damn deserving
And it cuts to the bone
I can't even get my own, no
But I've been learning
How to keep a thick skin
And a wide-open heart
But it's a delicate art, yeah
I'll run away, I'll run away
Maybe I'll get back to you someday
And maybe you'll love me anyway
You can find compassion if you look me in the eye
Just give a little love and I will always take your side
I'll run away, I'll run away
Get back to me someday
And maybe I'll love you anyway
