Running from You Was something I was so good at I pulled away each moment you got close But chasing after Me You were just so much better at Before I knew it You caught up with Me You took Me by surprise I never thought that I would find Somebody just like You Who could move Me like You do And I was swept away How everything just fell in place You had Me by the soul And would not let Me go
[Bridge 1]
And I've never wanted anyone Like the way I wanted you And I've never needed anyone Like the way that I needed You
[Verse 2]
You found in Me Everything You did not need You hoped for someone Who had so much more You worried about my past And knew that You should turn and run But then You found yourself attached to Me I know You tried so hard Just to not let Yourself fall But sometimes You just can't choose Who your heart will choose for You The chemistry it freed us As the passion burned between us On those summer nights of love We could not get enough
[Bridge 2]
And I swear I've never fell so hard Like the way I fell for you And I swear You took my breath away When you turned your back and walked away
[Chorus]
But theres something bout this ruin That I find so beautiful I find peace when Im in pieces On the floor Its so familiar when I'm Breaking down inside Cause when its all That you have ever known The lonliness it just becomes your home And I guess there's comfort in sadness after all
[Verse 3]
And now.. Running from Me You have gotten so good at You pulled away the moment I got close Chasing after you I just dont have the strength to do I lost it all the moment I lost you Time can move so slow When You find yourself alone The walls they talk to you And your mind plays tricks on You As tears replace the laughter I hope you find what you are after It was not here with Me Though I fought so hard to keep you
[Bridge 3]
But now all I'm fighting for Is not to miss You anymore But its a fight I just can't win I've lost the will to even try
[Chorus]
But theres something bout this ruin That I find so beautiful I find peace when Im in pieces On the floor Its so familiar when I'm Breaking down inside Cause when its all That you have ever known The lonliness it just becomes your home And I guess there's comfort in sadness after all
