Rebelution - Running lyrics

Well tell me what you're running from
She said everything and everyone
Well tell me what you're running from
What you're running from
Well tell me what you're running from
'Cause your past, it can't be undone
Tell me what you're running from
What you're running from

Well she wakes up every morning
Her thoughts weighing heavy on her mind
She's hoping today will be a better
Day than the ones behind
She's having some trouble getting going
Oh, from the fear she's paralyzed
She puts her face into her
Hands and then she cries

'Cause she's so tired she closes her eyes
Trying to live up to a
Standard that the world provides
And she's so tired she closes her eyes
Trying to live up to a
Standard that the world provides oh yeah

So tell me what you're running from
She said everything and everyone
Well tell me what you're running from
What you're running from
Well tell me what you're running from, girl
'Cause your past, it can't be undone, no way
Tell me what you're running from
What you running from whoa yeah

No hope for tomorrow, no hope for today
No hope for anything that comes her way
She's so used to feeling empty inside
No reasons to live, more reasons to die
At least, that's what she feels inside
Will she ever find the courage to change?

'Cause she's so tired she closes her eyes
Trying to live up to a
Standard that the world provides
And she's so tired she closes her eyes
Trying to live up to a
Standard that the world provides oh yeah

Well she's been running away so long
And she's been running away from home
Will she ever get back? Well I don't know
No, I don't know
And you can see it in her eyes
And you can see it in her smile
Oh, oh, oh, yeah whoa, whoa, yeah, yeah

Well tell me what you're running from
She said everything and everyone
Well tell me what you're running from
What you're running from
Well tell me what you're running from, girl
'Cause your past, it can't be undone, no way
Tell me what you're running from
What you're running from oh yeah, yeah

Tell-a-me, tell-a-me, tell-a-me, tell-a-me
Tell-a-me, tell-a-me, tell-a-me, tell-a-me
Tell-a-me, tell-a-me, tell-a-me, tell-a-me
Tell-a-me, tell-a-me, tell-a-me, tell-a-me
Oh

Tell-a-me, tell-a-me, tell-a-me, tell-a-me
Yeah
Tell-a-me, tell-a-me, tell-a-me, tell-a-me
Yeah well tell-a-me, tell-a-me, tell-a-me
Tell-a-me
Tell-a-me, tell-a-me, tell-a-me, tell-a-me
Oh

So tell me what you're running from
She said everything and everyone
So tell me what you're running from
What you're running from
