Arkells
Running Scared
[Verse 1]
One of those nights when you wanna get blackout
One of those nights when you just don't care
One of those nights you don't think about tomorrow
One of those nights when you're running scared
Thought all of this was exactly what I wanted
It's day-to-day is what they're telling me
Here you are showing up in all my dreams, yeah
I'd rather have you lying next to me

[Chorus]
I just wanna black out
When it's feeling lonely
I'm running scared, I don't know how to be alone
I'm running scared and I can't even pick up the phone
I just wanna tap out (Wanna tap out, wanna tap out, yeah)
Without cerеmony (Ceremony, no more cеremony)
I'm running scared, I don't know how to be alone
I'm running scared and I can't even pick up the phone

[Verse 2]
In the back of my mind, I can hear a voice warning
You shouldn't play with matters of the heart
In the back of my mind, I can hear that voice saying
I know you're not who you say you are
I see you in my dreams, I see you in the street
But you're moving on like there's nothing to keep
Like a fool finding out now after the fact
And it's years that you're not getting back
[Chorus]
I just wanna black out (Wanna black out, wanna black out)
When it's feeling lonely (When it's lonely, when it's feeling lonely)
I'm running scared, I don't know how to be alone
I'm running scared and I can't even pick up the phone
I just wanna tap out (Wanna tap out, wanna tap out, yeah)
Without ceremony (Ceremony, cere-ceremony)
I'm running scared, I don't know how to be alone
I'm running scared and I can't even pick up the phone

[Bridge]
So I keep going
I'm afraid if I stop
I'll be by myself
And alone with my thoughts
Now, I can't think of a scarier place
It's a video game, the thrill of the chase
'Cause I wanted it all, no, I couldn't resist
You didn't ask for any of this
I just wanna

[Chorus]
I just wanna black out (Wanna black out, wanna black out)
When it's feeling lonely (When it's lonely, when it's feeling lonely)
I'm running scared, I don't know how to be alone
I'm running scared and I can't even pick up the phone
I just wanna tap out (Wanna tap out, wanna tap out, yeah)
Without ceremony (Ceremony, cere-ceremony)
I'm running scared, I don't know how to be alone
I'm running scared and I can't even pick up the phone
I just wanna
