Running
Naomi Scott Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every time I hear you speak,
Every part of me grows weak
I lose the way to compete
Now the end is out of reach,
I won't criticise your speach
Or the lesson that you teach

Your scared of being lonely,

But you choose to walk alone
I turned into that woman
I promised I wouldn't be

I don't know where to run...
But I'm runing anyway
I don't need to know...
Which direction I should go ...

Convicted of condebt
Beat me to the lions den...

Your scared of being lonely,
But you choose to walk alone
I turned into that woman
I promised, I promised I don't want to be

I don't know where to run...
But I'm runing anyway,
I don't need to know...
Which direction I should go, go, go ...

I don't know where to run...
But I'm running anyway
If I get lost I trust my instincts...
I don't need to know which direction I should go...

As long as I'm away from you,
I'll take my chances ...
