I Can't (Prod. Ryan Payne)

Hook:
And even though she likes the way, I do it,
I can't keep running away, I can't keep running away,
And even though this is the way,
I choose it,
I can't keep running away, I can't keep running away.

Skin, soft, quite light as the high brights on a cop car zooming off after the weak, she,
see, eyes that disguises the dark vices youre holding out of sight deep underneath, a small,
Hope glimmers as I'm thinking of all, the contradictions involved and the sins you've absolved from me,
We, A word that I contemplate now,
An item discovered that should have never been found,
Got me on some real thinking, the burning of my fire,
Is lacking your lighter applied tenderly I require,
Your luminosity has pulled me closer through the wire,
The object of my desire through touches that we acquired.
Label me a liar, when I never come through,
I know it hurts to hear this love, but that's truth,
What what I'm bout to say next will make it sound worse.
When it's you or my goals you would never come first,

Hook:
And even though she likes the way, I do it,
I can't keep running away, I can't keep running away,
And even though this is the way,
I choose it,
I can't keep running away, I can't keep running away.

I wipe the water from your eyes revealing your mascara,
There's streaked black marks on a cheek I've kissed,
This week I missed you like 26 times, and the least I can do is tell just it how it is,
explaining how you're special yet I'm leaving now is stupid,
II swear to god they make it seem so easy in the movies,
And I, see your soul through the windows on your face,
it's hurting more than ever just to hear it so late,
I utter words,
You cryin out so soft but to me it has become the loudest sound ever heard,
What mess is this, I turn away, grit my teeth and clench my fist,
At best I'm pissed,
she try to touch hands I jerk away from her touch,
thinking "Geez goddamm why care so much,"
I tell her how I'm going to college across nation,
Abandoned her love for the sake of education,

Hook:
And even though she likes the way, I do it,
I can't keep running away, I can't keep running away,
And even though this is the way,
I choose it,
I can't keep running away, I can't keep running away.

Sometimes, I feel so heartless,
let you down cuz I know where my heart is. Hey,
But I'll tell you something,
All this time you should have seen this coming,
Ohh,
But don't you see,
We have the future still, If we were Meant to be,
But don't you see, that you would love me still, if you were meant for me,
Oui, excuse my French, I'm just reaching for the best,
And im sure this a test,
I'm cursed, i flee,
Dreaming, in my own sleep,
See when I'm hurt, I bleed, you misinterpret me,
Three, long days, I waited for your reply,
Not wanting for you to wait when you could be with other guys,
Our delicate balance was as a cloth so soft,
Despising the fact that I broke it all off.

Hook:
And even though she likes the way, I do it,
I can't keep running away, I can't keep running away,
And even though this is the way,
I choose it,
I can't keep running away, I can't keep running away.
