[Verse 1]
I’m going blind
Another unpleasant sad sight has left a dent on these sore eyes
I’d leave, but I don’t know how
No, I don’t know how to find my way around these muted lights
I’ll follow crumbs off carpet floors
I’d speak, but my mouth’s gone dry, now my mouth’s gone dry
[Pre-Chorus]
Step off the pedestal that holds you so high
[Chorus]
Run away, run away from the perfect crime
Just like that, it's the past, steal my fuck, steal my time
Blame yourself, blame yourself when he hangs you out to dry
And for the last first time
I’ll be better before, now I’m worse after
Wipe the dust off of chagrin chapters
Run away from the perfect crime
Just like that it's the past, steal my fuck, steal my time
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
I always drink from a glass half-full of spite
Where the fuck have you been?
I know I can’t avoid the signs
Do not enter
[Verse 3]
Don’t you dare compare this to the way I was
White lies won’t satisfy
This is what you wanted, don’t it feel good?
White lies won’t satisfy
[Pre-Chorus]
Step off the pedestal that holds you so high
Burn all the evidence that says that you were mine
[Chorus]
Run away, run away from the perfect crime
Just like that, it's the past, steal my fuck, steal my time
Blame yourself, blame yourself when he hangs you out to dry
And for the last first time
I’ll be better before, now I’m worse after
Wipe the dust off of chagrin chapters
Run away from the perfect crime
Just like that it's the past, steal my fuck, steal my time
[Bridge]
You’ll say I never existed
You curse all my wishes
I still hear your smile
It’s been here a while
You’re pouring my downfall
I’m under the weather
I’m stuck in the cycle
Of love, hurt, repeat
Have you got what you need?
[Chorus]
Run away, run away from the perfect crime
Just like that, it's the past, steal my fuck, steal my time
Run away from the perfect crime
(Run away)
Just like that, it's the past, steal my fuck, steal my time
Blame yourself, blame yourself when he hangs you out to dry
(Run away)
And for the last first time
I’ll be better before, I’m worse after
Wipe the dust off of these chapters
Run away from the perfect crime
(Run away)
Just like that it's the past, steal my fuck
