Scenery is nothing more than poetry.
Love is nothing more than chemicals.
'Cause fairy tales are just scribbled pages filled with happy endings and little white lies.
One person can make a difference, but a crowd can make a change.


Look at those gray eyes, so sad,
The stare I get from them make feel bad.
That guy, the one you got,
The one who makes you cry without a thought?
He mistreats you, hurts you, he's so abusive,
You and I have a better connection that's exclusive.
Better things, smiley days you know you deserve,
I can make it happen if I wasn't stuck as a reserve.
Wasting every day contemplating him,
You're fighting a battle you won't win.
Why don't you run too me?
Tell me I'm yours to keep.
Why don't you show me?
I'm everything you need.
'Cause I don't wanna live like this,
Having to wonder about the truth.
Sharing feelings are the days I miss,
So why don't you?
If you're looking for attention you got mine,
I'll give you affection, don't waste another dime.
Counting down the seconds until he delivers a mistake,
Then I'll be the hero to not let your heart break.
He spins to you a web of lies,
Not understanding the trust in your eyes.
When has he ever told the truth?
He's never an honest man with you.
Before you know it the relationship will hit an end with him,
Hop in my car so we can find a new road to begin.
Why don't you run too me?
Tell me I'm yours to keep.
Why don't you show me?
I'm everything you need.
'Cause I don't wanna live like this,
Having to wonder about the truth.
Sharing feelings are the days I miss,
So why don't you?
See, you're afraid of being alone and that's what the problem is,
You're so scared that you'll be someone nobody will miss.
Well, I'm here to tell you the truth right now,
I'd swim the seven seas to keep you around.
Open your eyes and look to the right,
I'm straight in front of you, straight in sight.
Understand that you'll never be alone,
Stop ignoring my calls and pick up the phone.
We need each other, we just can't see it,
More than we'll ever wanna admit...
Why don't you run too me?
Tell me I'm yours to keep.
Why don't you show me?
I'm everything you need...
Why don't you run too me?
Tell me I'm yours to keep.
Why don't you show me?
I'm everything you need.
'Cause I don't wanna live like this,
Having to wonder about the truth.
Sharing feelings are the days I miss,
So why don't you?
