It's like sand slipping through my fingers It's like water running away when a tsunami approaches If it's running away, it's because there's a reason I'm not some kind of monster Love It's like I'm going to lose you Even though you run Nobody can stop you It's a race And I can't catch you I feel like a monster chasing little children I'll value someone who sees me as a little princess You see the world burning I see the world in black and white without you You see me as the witch from your story I see myself as a child without your plush toy Is it too much to ask you to stop running? It's like sand slipping through my fingers It's like water fleeing when a tsunami approaches If it's fleeing, it's because there's a reason I'm not some kind of monster Love It's like sand slipping through my fingers It's like water fleeing when a tsunami approaches If it's fleeing, it's because there's a reason I'm not some kind of monster Love Don't you feel this is dragging on? You want me to run, so let me know so I can put on my clothes I didn't think you liked to play games Now I know your type A smile escapes my lips Don't be happy, love It's the kind of smile that will tire you out It's like I'm going to lose you Although you run Nobody can stop you It's a race And I can't catch you I feel like a monster chasing little children I'll value someone who sees me as a little princess You see the world on fire I see the world in black and white without you You see me as the witch from your story I see myself as a child without your plush toy Is it too much to ask you to stop running?
