Running Away Lyrics


I hide my face I'm trying harder than you'd ever know and
I can't help whats wrong, you've found your light
And no I, I can't fall down
Wherever we were lost, you've returned from but I have not been foundAnd you're running away from what's here
But what you've found is not another place or year
And you're running away from what's real
Ignoring your past and what you feelWhen darkness falls I feel we're led by separate powers and I know
You see much more than stars above
And yet your smile still fades
I noticed as you're trailing blindly behind an absent hand you madeAnd you're running away from what's here
But what you've found is not another place or year
And you're running away from what's real
Ignoring your past and what you feelAnd not 10 minutes before crushing metal blinding lights
And fire he had raised his eyes to the icon on the dashboard and he said
"Is it enough for me to live in theory?" sipping down his sorrow he set the bottle down, having never thought this life was for himselfCause he was running away from what's here
And what he found was not another place or year
He was running away from what we feel
Never giving himself the chance to live for real

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Kina Kasuya Grannis (born August 4, 1985, of Japanese, English, Irish, French, and German descent) is a Japanese-American guitarist and singer-songwriter from Orange County, CA. She started performing in 2001 after getting over with her shyness. Kina independently released her first full-length album, Stairwells, on February 23, 2010. Her music is both sweet and melancholy, but always filled with hope.

Kina started playing shows at the age of four in front of her stuffed animals. Now she plays in front of people, though it wasn’t the quickest transition for the admittedly shy songstress. While attending college at USC, Kina often retreated to the secluded stairwells around campus where she could write and sing without being heard. Protected by their quiet confines, she found a safe haven and a creative outlet for her music. Armed with a guitar and a cup of tea, Kina wrote in every stairwell she came across. And it was within these stairwells that she developed her confidence as a songwriter and her poise as a performer.

In 2007, Kina joined YouTube, made a music video and entered herself into a contest. A few months later, her video for “Message From Your Heart” aired during the Superbowl and its 97 million viewers (or 194 million eyeballs, depending on how you’re keeping track) and she walked away with a record deal. Since then, Kina has regularly posted her songs on YouTube, amassing many millions of views, and toured throughout North America. Her songs have been heard on television shows such as ABC’s General Hospital and MTV’s College Life.
