Lyrics
0:17I'm so good at running away
0:24You'd think Id grown up on a train
0:33And you're so good at leading them on
0:40Who am I to bring you down
0:48I wonder why I'm still hanging around
0:54Was it the sound
0:59Cause I've known for years that wed get here
1:07And I can't make believe
1:10That were not seeing the same thing
1:15And I've known for years that wed get here
1:23And itd be a shame to make believe
1:28It's better to leave
1:38And it's so cruel the way I recall
1:46I ran out of lies to take it all
1:54My questions tell whether I am just afraid
2:02But who are they to stand in my way
2:09I wonder if I just soldier the crown
2:15Was it the sound
2:20Cause I've known for years that wed get here
2:28And I can't make believe that were not seeing the same thing
2:36Cause I've known for years that wed get here
2:44And itd be a shame to make believe
2:52It'd be a shame to make believe it's better to leave
3:00It'd be a shame to make believe it's better to leave
3:07It'd be a shame to make believe
3:10It's better better better better to leave
3:18Cause I've known for years that wed get here
3:26And I can't make believe that were not seeing the same thing
3:34Cause I've known for years that wed get here
3:42And itd be a shame
3:45It'd be a shame shame
3:50It'd be a shame to make believe
3:58It'd be a shame to make believe
4:03Oh its better to leave
I'm so good at running away You'd think Id grown up on a train And you're so good at leading them on Who am I to bring you down I wonder why I'm still hanging around Was it the sound Cause I've known for years that wed get here And I can't make believe That were not seeing the same thing And I've known for years that wed get here And itd be a shame to make believe It's better to leave And it's so cruel the way I recall I ran out of lies to take it all My questions tell whether I am just afraid But who are they to stand in my way I wonder if I just soldier the crown Was it the sound Cause I've known for years that wed get here And I can't make believe that were not seeing the same thing Cause I've known for years that wed get here And itd be a shame to make believe It'd be a shame to make believe it's better to leave It'd be a shame to make believe it's better to leave It'd be a shame to make believe It's better better better better to leave Cause I've known for years that wed get here And I can't make believe that were not seeing the same thing Cause I've known for years that wed get here And itd be a shame It'd be a shame shame It'd be a shame to make believe It'd be a shame to make believe Oh its better to leave
