Justice
Running Lights Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I check myself 'cause I'm staring.
But I would rather be blind
If I couldn't see that there's just no comparing.
I don't want you walkin' away
So don't leave I need ya to stay
I can't breath but what can I say
Whooohooo
I got you inside of my head
My heart's beatin' out of my chest
But some things are better unsaid
Words don't do you justice
Gotta see to believe it
'Cause I can't describe the way I feel
But I know I feel it
Words don't do you justice
So call me a liar
There's nothing I can say or do
So I keep quiet
Words don't do you justice
Whooohooo, Whooohooo
Do you justice
Whooohooo
Words don't do you justice
You got that look in your eyes
Like you've been runnin' from something
We all got demons inside
But a girl like you should be ashamed of nothin'
I don't want you walkin' away
So don't leave I need ya to stay
I can't breathe but what can I say
Whooohooo
I got you inside of my head
My heart's beating outta my chest
but some things are better unsaid
Words don't do you justice
Gotta see to believe it
'Cause I can't describe the way I feel
But I know I feel it
Words don't do you justice
So call me a liar
There's nothing I can say or do
So I keep quiet
Words don't do you justice
Whooohooo, Whooohooo
Do you justice
Whooohooo
Words don't do you justice
Whooohooo, Whooohooo
Do you justice
Whooohooo
Words don't do you justice
I can't help it
No, I can't help it
'Cause I just felt it
So I can't help it
(NO, NO!)
I can't help it
(Noooooo ohhhh)
No I can't help it
(Ahhhhhh)
'Cause I just felt it
(Nahhhhh)
Words don't do you justice
Gotta see to believe it
(see to believe it)
'Cause I can't describe the way I feel
But I know I feel it
Words don't do you justice
(Whooohooo)
So call me a liar
(Whooohooo)
There's nothing I can say or do
So I keep quiet
Words don't do you justice
(JUSTIIIIICEEE)
Whooohooo, Whooohooo
Do you justice
Whooohooo
(Gotta see to believe it)
Words don't do you justice
Whooohooo, Whooohooo
Do you justice
Whooohooo
(Noooooo ohhhh)
Words don't do you justice
