How Do You Run?

How do you run when you’re a child?
How do you hide when you’re a captive?
How do you leave without leaving?
How do you save some of your feelings?

Change you name many times.
Build a castle in your mind.
Burn the map when you’re finished

Take on shapes when you need to.

Change your name, name, name.
Change your name, name, name.
Change your name, name, name.
Change your name, name, name.

We’ll teach our love to be quiet
Until we leave this town behind us.
Change your name many times.
Build a ship in your mind.
Fly the sails and pull the anchor

And we’ll head onto tomorrow.

Change your name, name, name.
Change your name, name, name.
Change your name, name, name.
Change your name, name, name.

You were the first one to build a bridge.
You walked across to pick me up.
I shot at you with all my canons.
How could I know that love could be good?
