The harder we fall, the faster we run.
I bet you tell that to the other girls
you’ve been with before me.
We’ve been around the world
but nothing seems to fit with
the version of our love.
I bet you’d rather run away
with the next girl you see.
I’m not that kind of girl
so you better look elsewhere
for someone who’d run a mile
without the pressures of perfection.
Knowing that I’m just another
wide eyed girl you’ll walk past
is a little to fitting for the world
we both live in. Don’t you think?
The world seems to be far more
greater than the both of us.
The harder we fall, the faster we run.
It seems to be the mantra of the season.
Forgetting the past to make room
for the newer rendition of an old song
we used to play during a heatwave.
Five years ago, in July was when she had you.
You could’ve been with me
if you wanted to but you made your choice.
You catered to her needs
while I wonder around the city
wishing you were there beside me.
I’ve known so much of nothing
when it comes to a love that is true.
Everyone around me seems to be
mesmerized by the beauty of the clouds.
And yet, heaven is brighter than the sun.
All the reasons why I wanted to escape
the life placed upon me that hot July day.
