Running Scared
by Quinlan L GibsonHow dare you!
Accusations fly high, when you're running
scared.
You don't believe me? Prove it or we're through?
I've got better things to do, than lie to you.
Not one reason you can give, not a leg to stand.
Why should I believe you've been a faithful man?
We start off clean-slated. Un-tainted.
Captivated.. by what we've found in each other.
Now you run from the love of your lover? Running scared.
If you cannot trust, we cannot win.
No matter what lies you've caught ex's in.
Not me, my mind produces the truth..in light
It's why you'll toss and turn tonight
I'll sleep tight..the truth does set you free.
If you cannot trust, let me be.
Run scared.
