I've tried to make it work before,
thinking a new scenery would bring about
a new me.
And what I found is that the
only thing you can't outrun
are neuroses and setting suns.
I've got those runaway blues
and I wish I could promise you
I'd still be here tomorrow
but I'm not sure that I'll last.
I wish that I could say
that everything will be ok
but I'm through telling lies that never
served me in the past.
And I can't tell
because the life that I'm living
feels a lot like I'm tail-spinning.
What does it mean when the
rock bottom feels no different
than the false epiphanies I'm given.
I've got those runaway blues
and I wish I could promise you
I'd still be here tomorrow
but I don't know that I'll last.
I wish that I could say
that I am gonna be ok
but I'm through telling lies that never
served me in the past.
I give I give I give I give
I give I give I give I give
up
up.
I think I fall in love too fast,
can't stop having dreams
that seem at home on movie screens.
I guess the damage runs its course,
when happiness seems close at hand,
I leave it for a distant land.
I've got those runaway blues
and I wish I could promise you
I'd still be here tomorrow
but I'm not sure that I'll last.
I wish that I could say
that everything will be ok
but I'm through telling lies that never
served me in the past.
I've got those runaway blues
and I wish I could promise you
I'd still be here tomorrow
but I don't know that I'll last.

that I am gonna be ok
but I'm through telling lies that never
served me in the past.
