Run Away (9 & 3/4)

{verse one}    
Suddenly the skies,  
Turned in on my mind    
Now’s the time.    
    
Spilt the iodine,    
Stinging in my scars    
I’m screaming out:    
   
{verse two}    
“Oh, what is empathy for,    
If no one feels this like I do?    
Tricked by fake grinning,    
Trapped by hexan beasts--    
But people could care less.”    
   
{post-verse}    
I felt so hopeful,    
I’ve started over a million,    
Fucking times.    
But, it’s all a lie.    
   
So you say you’re here for me,    
But life moves on the next day--    
Why did you even care at all?    
   
{pre-chorus}    
Bibbidi-bobbidi    
Let’s make some magic happen    
Bibbidi-bobbidi    
Ticket to the next dimension    
   
This is my freedom song,    
My rebellious teenage heart    
Bruised, broken,    
Beating today.    
   
{chorus}    
It’s me, against the world now    
It’s me, against everyone    
Run away,    
Run away,    
Run away,    
With me.    
   
The clouds bursting with thunder    
My wand buzzing with anger    
Run away,    
Leave here,    
Don’t give me a,    
Fake love.    
   
{post-chorus}    
Why would you stay?    
Run with me now.    
If you really cared,    
Run with me now.    
   
You’ll leave everything else behind,    
But that’s the cost of magic.    
   
Why would you stay?    
Run with me now.    
If you really cared,    
Run with me now.    
   
You can leave your pain behind,    
Cast a spell, and run away.    
   
*silence*    
   
{verse three}    
What did, what did you say now?    
What do you mean when you say that?    
Are you so selfish to choose here,    
Over happiness with me, love?    
   
*slower tempo in the next stanza*    
   
{verse 4}    
Now your hand,    
Reaches out,    
Slowly,    
Our fingers lock,    
I’m still scared,    
To let you slip…    
   
{post verse}    
Our gaze closer than before--    
I can’t help it.    
Your teardrops,    
Making mine roll down.    
   
With a finger on my lips,    
You told me your story.    
Never before,    
I’ve been so wrong.    
   
{pre-chorus}    
Is it me against the world,    
Or against myself?    
Maybe no one ever speaks up,    
Cause they’re just like me.    
   
Prisoners in the dark,    
We’re trapped alone in thought.    
It’s been easier to defend    
Than reach out.    
   
{chorus}    
It’s me, and I don’t know better    
It’s me, and I can’t run farther    
Run to me,    
Run to me,    
Run to me,    
I’ll wait.    
   
The clouds bursting with thunder    
My wand buzzing with anger,    
Run to me,    
And we’ll,    
Hold it off,    
Together.    
   
{post-chorus}    
In the eclipse,    
The sky rumbles    
It’s so hard to stay,    
But I’ll never go.    
   
I can’t leave you here behind,    
I can’t leave you crying…    
   
In the eclipse,    
The sky rumbles    
It’s so hard to stay,    
But I’ll never go.    
   
I can’t leave you here alone,    
When you need me here to stay…    
   
*silence*    
*distorted voice saying quote below*
   
   
{interlude}    
“You think, you’ve won this time, little ones?    
But I’ll be back,    
Don’t you know?    
Don’t you know?    
Whatever you say, will haunt you, if you’re wrong.    
Just know you asked for it…”    
   
*silence*    
   
{chorus}    
It’s me, and I don’t know better    
It’s me, and I can’t run farther    
Run to me,    
Run to me,    
Run to me,    
I’ll wait.    
   
The clouds bursting with thunder    
My wand buzzing with anger,    
Run to me,    
And we’ll,    
Hold it off,    
Together.    
   
{post-chorus}    
A life without pain,    
Never is one.    
A life without you,    
Never goes on.    
   
I can’t leave you here behind,    
I can’t leave you crying…    
   
A life without pain,    
Never is one.    
A life without you,    
Never goes on.    
   
I can’t leave you here alone,    
Promise, I won’t run away~

This rebellious, energetic pop-rock song is sung by the Korean group, TXT.      
       
These English lyrics were made by me.      
       
Here is the (amazing) music video with orig. lyrics:

Author's Note
“Is it really me against the world? Or is it just me against myself..”
“Does no one feel like I do? Or does it only seem that way because they feel exactly like I do?” ~~ Often a person can become self-absorbed in their own emotions, and we can feel like everything is attacking us, but everyone, actually might feel as lonely and misunderstood as we do. It’s just, we don’t talk about it. I didn’t know for a while that the people I thought never suffered, actually have. It may not always seem like it, but someone out there might relate to you more than you think.
