You Run Away - Barenaked Ladies
You run away
You could turn and stay
But you run away
From me
I tried to be
Your brother
You cried and
Ran for cover
I made a mess who doesn't
I did my best
But it wasn't enough
You run away
You could turn and stay
But you run away from me
I'll give you something you can cry about
One thing you should try it out
Hold a mirror shoulder-high
When you're older look you in the eye
When you're older look you in the eye
I tried but you tried harder
I lied but you lied smarter
You made me guess who was it
I did my best but it wasn't enough
You run away
You could turn and stay
But you run away from me
You run away
You could turn and stay
But you run away from me
That's not something to cry about
It's not something to lie about ooh
You run away
You could turn and stay
But you run away from me
From me I did my best but it wasn't enough
