Aurora - Runaway Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And broken glass. This is my goodbye to you, and now it's over now
What a waste of time, you are sail away, my dear
Go out and find the world!
Look at me now, as I walk away from here, far away from here
And I know that you've gone away so leave now for good
Yeah! Do I walk in the valleys of shadows and death?
I fear no evil upon me. It's the demon's arch
Roll in
Your grave!
So how could this be that we have fallen to hell? (to hell!)
I'm going down, carry my descent with you
Carry my descent with you!
I have told you time and time and time again I will be who I am
Even without you, I will not succumb to your lies
Fuck!
Fuck!
I have chosen a simple way out, I will be who I'm destined to be
You will rot beneath the earth. Darling, don't waste your time on me
I will be who I'm destined to be. You will rot beneath the earth
Go out and find the world. You might find peace!

Lyrics
I was listening to the ocean
I saw a face in the sand
But when I picked it up
Then it vanished away from my hands, down
I had a dream I was seven
Climbing my way in a tree
I saw a piece of heaven
Waiting, impatient, for me, down
And I was running far away
Would I run off the world someday?
Nobody knows, nobody knows
I was dancing in the rain
I felt alive and I can't complain
But now take me home
Take me home where I belong
I can't take it anymore
I was painting a picture
The picture was a painting of you
And for a moment I thought you were here
But then again, it wasn't true, down
And all this time I have been lying
Oh, lying in secret to myself
I've been putting sorrow on the farthest place on my shelf
And I was running far away
Would I run off the world someday?…
I admit this is from the description. I just Pasted this so people can see
