[Verse]
B I ran from my house that cannot contain me B From the man that I cannot keep B From my mother who haunts me, even though she's gone B From my daughter that never sleeps
[Chorus]
C#m A F# I ran from the noise and the silence B A B A From the traffic on the streets
B A
B A
[Verse]
B I ran to the treetops, I ran to the sky B Out to the lake, into the rain that matted my hair B And soaked my shoes and skin B Hid my tears, hid my fears
[Chorus]
C#m A F#
B A B A I ran to the forest, I ran to the trees B A B A I ran and I ran, I was looking for me
[Verse]
B A B E/G# I ran past the churches and the crooked old mailbox B A B E/G# Past the apple orchards and the lady that never talks B A B E/G# Up into the hills, I ran to the cemetery B A B E/G# B A B E/G# And held my breath, and thought about your death B A B E/G# I ran to the lake, up into the hills B A B E/G# I ran and I ran, I'm looking there still B A B E/G# And I saw the crumbling tombstones
[Chorus]
C#m A F# All forgotten names B A B A I tasted the rain, I tasted my tears B A B A I cursed the angels, I tasted my fears
[Bridge]
B A B E/G# And the ground gave way beneath my feet B A B E/G# And the earth took me in her arms B A Leaves covered my face B A Ants marched across my back B A B E/G# Black sky opened up, blinding me
[Chorus]
C#m A F#
B A B A I ran to the forest, I ran to the trees B A B A I ran and I ran, I was looking for me B A B A I ran to the lakes and up to the hill B A B A I ran and I ran, I'm looking there still
[Outro]
N.C.
And I smelled her burning flesh
Her rotting bones
Her decay
I ran and I ran
I'm still running away
