Hoobastank — Running Away

[Verse 1] I don't want you to give it all up And leave your own life collecting dust And I don't want you to feel sorry for me You never gave us a chance to be And I don't need you to be by my side To tell me that everything's alright I just wanted you to tell me the truth You know I'd do that for you [Chorus] So why are you running away? Why are you running away? [Verse 2] I did enough to show you that I Was willing to give and sacrifice And I was the one who was lifting you up When you thought your life had, had enough And when I get close, you turn away There's nothing that I can do or say So now I need you to tell me the truth You know I'd do that for you [Chorus] So why are you running away? Why are you running away? [Bridge] Is it me? (Is it me) Is it you? (Is it you) Nothing that (Nothing that) I can do (I can do) To make you (To make you) Change your mind Is it me? Is it you? (Why do you run away won't you tell) Nothing that I can do Is it a waste of time? (Why do you run away) Is it me? Is it you? Nothing that I can do To make you change your mind, no [Outro] So why are you running away? Why are you running away? (What is it I have to say...) So why are you running away? (...to make you admit you're afraid?) Why are you running away?
