Running Away - Bao Binh
Early morning, you rushed out the door
Your eyes were red like you couldn't take more
I wanted to stop you, say something true
But all I could do was watch you move
The air was heavy with words unsaid
As you vanished, I felt the dread
Running away, running fast
Like you were escaping from the past
I called your name, but the echo stayed
You didn't turn back, you just ran away
Running away from all you knew
I didn't know how to follow you
At school that day, I couldn't think straight
Wondering where you went, what was your fate
Memories of us when we were young
Played on repeat, but now you're gone
The distance grew as the silence fell
I hoped you'd return, but who could tell
Running away, running fast
Like you were escaping from the past
I called your name, but the echo stayed
You didn't turn back, you just ran away
Running away from all you knew
I didn't know how to follow you
Running away, running fast
Like you were escaping from the past
I called your name, but the echo stayed
You didn't turn back, you just ran away
Running away from all you knew
I didn't know how to follow you
If I could reach you now, would you stop and stay
Or are we too far gone to find our way
Running away, running fast
Like you were escaping from the past
I called your name, but the echo stayed
You didn't turn back, you just ran away
Running away from all you knew
I didn't know how to follow you
Running away, running fast
Like you were escaping from the past
I called your name, but the echo stayed
You didn't turn back, you just ran away
Running away from all you knew
I didn't know how to follow you
