[Verse 1]
I miss late night talks and drunken slang
I miss low tone, and strong hands
I don't miss the pain that ensued with it
Don't like that he told me what to do with it
Get a grip, it feels quite abusive
When he's got a grip of me, but
When he's got a grip of me, but
He no longer wants to use it
(He no longer wants to use it)

[Pre-Chorus]
Truth is I'm scared, and I'm tired of feeling on edge
So many words, too many hurt
The memories are all in my head, is it all in my head?
You give me a reason, you give me a reason

[Chorus]
I don't wanna run away
I work hard and I loved you for days
I don't wanna run away

I don't wanna run away
I work hard just to get through the day
I don't wanna run away
[Verse 2]
I hate how it is, and it is you
How it happened, what did we get into
This man's an island, and I can't swim
Get a grip, is that what you're made of?
Tough skin, let it sink in
When he's got a grip of me, but
He no longer wants to use it

[Chorus]
I don't wanna run away
I work hard and I loved you for days
I don't wanna run away

I don't wanna run away
I work hard just to get through the day
I don't wanna run away

[Outro]
I don't wanna run away
I don't wanna run away
(I don't want to)

I don't wanna run away
I don't wanna run away
I don't wanna run away
