Gotta get up get out fast
Run from the feelings
Disappear before they last
By the way
By the way
Gotta run gotta hide
Keep it in the back of mind
Keep everything else locked inside
By the way
By the way
Cause I'm running this down into the ground
Turn your back for a second and I've tore it all down
By the way
By the way
And you said break it to me with that wavering voice
Make it clear that you won't even get a choice
By the way
I won't stay
Gotta wrap yourself up in lies
Lost in that peace of mind
Elaborate disguise
By the way
By the way
Gotta look her now
Deep in the eyes
Glazed over with indifference
Oh but she tried
By the way
By the way
Cause I'm running this down into the ground
Turn your back for a second and I've tore it all down
By the way
By the way
And you said break it to me with that wavering voice
Make it clear that you won't even get a choice
By the way
I won't stay
She makes me think about her
Thought I really found a great flower
She been running through my mind
Think about her all time
But by the way
I been looking for you
You wanna stay but you walk away
Feeling scared that you found a place
Pull you close but I feel the space
Cause by the way
And you said break it to me with that wavering voice
Make it clear that you won't even get a choice
By the way
I won't stay
I won't stay
I won't stay
I won't stay
I won't stay
I won't stay
I won't stay
Cause by the way
