lyrics

VERSE 1
Nobody move the sun the dawn is
Breaking the seams undone
Don’t ask me why
Just button up
Magical ways and means that we find
To burn it down we bleed
We close our minds
Just hurry up

CHORUS 1
And I don’t wanna run and hide
I don’t wanna
So I’ll just let you see me cry
Tho' I don’t wanna

INTRO 2
Cry, cry

VERSE 2
Blood on the floor we trip and fall the
Flowers have dried so sweet the smell divine
I never would’ve thought to look
Up in the sky the clouds are talking
Telling each other to do what is right
Just kill 'em all don’t waste no time
Oh no

CHORUS 2
And I don’t wanna run and hide
I don’t wanna
So I’ll just let you see me cry
Tho' I don’t wanna

CHORUS 3
(run and hide no more)
No I don’t wanna run and hide
I don’t wanna
(time and space is all I need)
So I’ll just let you see me cry
Tho' I don’t wanna cry

RAP
I’m overwhelmed uh huh I said it
I won’t hide it
Trying to be strong for far too long
When all I wanna do is cry
It’s too much pressure
I can’t measure
My success in all these numbers all these dollars don’t make sense
And still we live and die
It’s too much cruelty the selfish serve themselves
Without a thought for you and me, why must it be
I’m going round and round
All this emotion with no answer
I feel anger and the sadness with no way out
So that’s why the tears be falling down
(no I don’t wanna run and hide)
Don’t tell me
That’s just the way it is accept it
Unless I’ve seen you empathise I just don’t buy your lies
Not everyone in power rules with our heart in mind
Never forget to question you deserve a better kind
(oooh oohhh oohhh)
But I can’t lose myself in downward spirals
Too much thought
My joy and peace what I desire
Is what can’t be bought
Don’t get me wrong I live in love and positivity
I’m looking up consistently
Some time and space is all I need

BRIDGE
You will be fine I know it
You will be fine I know it
You will be fine I know it
You will be fine I know it

CHORUS 4
And I don’t wanna run and hide (hide)
I don’t wanna
So I’ll just let you see me cry
(I'll let you see me cry)
Tho' I don’t wanna

CHORUS 5
(run and hide no more)
No I don’t wanna run and hide
(I don't wanna run and hide no more)
I don’t wanna
(Time and space is all I need)
So I’ll just let you see me cry
(some time and space is all that I need)
Tho' I don’t wanna cry
