Runnin’ Scared

One last taste of my loving
One last flame from your fire
As we kiss and sigh and you tell me lies
One last time

Now, I’m just runnin’ scared. 

"I can’t save you from yourself."

By: SCARLET

You’d rather drown yourself in drink than make yourself sit down and think.
You’d rather lie in bed all day and keep those demons well at bay.
Oh, you mess things up. Oh, you’re dangerous. And I’ve tried to see you through it all and I don’t wanna watch you fall.

But I can’t save you from yourself. I’d kill myself if it would help.
I’ve had enough of wasting time. I’ve got to let you know that I love you like no one else.
But I can’t save you from yourself. I can’t save you from yourself.

You’d rather go hurt someone else than run the risk they’d hurt you first.
You’d rather go for second place than go for first and lose the race.
Oh, you screw things up. Oh, you’re dangerous. And I’ve tried to see you through it all and I don’t wanna watch you fall.

But I can’t save you from yourself. I’d kill myself if it would help.
I’ve had enough of wasting time. I’ve got to let you know that I love you like no one else.
But I can’t save you from yourself. I can’t save you from yourself.

You’d rather I was not your friend for fear I’d leave you in the end.
I know you’d like to change your ways and sure as hell if you don’t, you’ll pay.
Oh why do you fuck things up? Oh you’re dangerous.

But I can’t save you from yourself. I’d kill myself if it would help.
I’ve had enough of wasting time. I’ve got to let you know that I love you like no one else.
But I can’t save you from yourself. I can’t save you from yourself.

"Set me free, leave me be. I don’t want to fall another moment into your gravity."

You are, perhaps, the best and worst thing that has ever happened to me.

I don’t hate you because you cheated on me. I hate you because you told her my weakness.  You’ve made a fool out of me and a mockery out of my dreams. I have made truths out of all your lies, fabricated honesty out of your deceit for much too long already. And we both know that I badly need to walk away.

It would be really nice of you if you let me try.

Gravity by Sara Bareilles

Something always brings me back to you.
It never takes too long.
No matter what I say or do I’ll still feel you here ’til the moment I’m gone.

You hold me without touch.
You keep me without chains.
I never wanted anything so much than to drown in your love and not feel your rain.

Set me free, leave me be. I don’t want to fall another moment into your gravity.
Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I’m supposed to be.
But you’re on to me and all over me.

You loved me ’cause I’m fragile.
When I thought that I was strong.
But you touch me for a little while and all my fragile strength is gone.

Set me free, leave me be. I don’t want to fall another moment into your gravity.
Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I’m supposed to be.
But you’re on to me and all over me.

I live here on my knees as I try to make you see that you’re everything I think I need here on the ground.
But you’re neither friend nor foe though I can’t seem to let you go.
The one thing that I still know is that you’re keeping me down.
