about

We wrote this song immediately after “Scared of the Fall.” It’s a love song, but it’s a bittersweet one. At the end of last year I broke up with my longtime girlfriend, because I thought I wanted to “see what else was out there.” In hindsight this thought process was ignorant, but at the time there was this fear in me that I’d grow old and potentially not live out my best life possible because I settled down with a partner so young (I was 16 and she was 15 when we had met). We split and I ventured off, only to realize the obvious, which was that finding somebody so young was a blessing and not a curse. I realized I could never connect with anyone else the way I do with her. Sure enough, I called her and told her I missed her. She told me she missed me too. We met for donuts and decided we wanted to try things over. I’m grateful she let me back in. I love her more than life itself, and I could’ve lost her.

lyrics

You deserve the truth
But I’m terrified of losing you
Don’t know how to be with no one else
Cause you know me better than myself

Don’t know why I feel alone at the function
Filling up another cup just to bottle it up
One look and you know that I’m bluffing
Cause if it’s not you then it's
Never enough

I got your playlist ringing through my stereo
I’m calling out your name
Do you hear it though?

You got me on my knees praying for a miracle
I take back everything that I said before
There’s something missing
But I made that decision
So who am I kidding?

It’s all my fault and that’s why I just
Run to you
(Keep running and I)
I just keep running back to you
(Keep running and I)
I just run to you
(Keep running and I)
I just keep running back to you
Like I always do

Had our shit made
But I throw it all away
Some mistakes
Just can never be erased

I try to brush it off
But it’s written on my face
You know that’s the reason that I’m outside of your place

Skip a heartbeat
Every time I see your face at the party
Know it doesn’t make things right
But I’m sorry
I deserve every name that you call me

And you deserve the truth
But I’m terrified of losing you
Don’t know how to be with no one else
Cause you know me better than myself

It’s all my fault and that’s why I just
Run to you
(Keep running and I)
I just keep running back to you
(Keep running and I)
I just run to you
(Keep running and I)
I just keep running back to you
Like I always do

Keep running
But I can’t catch up to you
Keep calling but I know I messed up with you
Keep running
Now I don’t know what to do
Keep trying
Cause I don’t want nothing new
Keep running
But I can’t catch up to you
Keep calling but I know I messed up with you
Keep running and I
Keep running and I
Keep running like I always do
