Cut and Run
Beat Service Feat. Emma Lock Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This loneliness
Has become my consciousness
I lay awake
But baby I'm dreaming
I'm mystified
Nothing made sense to me
I can't see where this is going
when you cut and run
All days bleed into one
Can't shake this feeling so numb
Now that you cut and run
you tell me
Whats left to believe
cause I can't beat this feeling
Now that you've cut and run
I can't beat this feeling
Second to none
Now that you cut and run
Now that you've
Cut and run
Now that you've cut and run
I can't beat this feeling second to none




Now that you've
Cut and run

This version without vocals & a lil fast is better than the Armin's ASOT 2010. & the way he mixed to the next one is great. Very nice track, so beautiful without vocals
