lyrics

Hearts race faster still,
You told me don't look back,
I never will.
'cause I know we can't ever
change their minds, so why bother?
They don't matter.

Just run, run, faster now,
we've got the whole damn town tryna chase us out.
And I know we've got money saved so sugar c'mon,
let's leave town tonight.

Forget if weather's right,
Burns just as bright as inside,
But the leaves are just as broken,
Like the skin our pain was holding.

Leave it all behind,
Eating at our skin, we begin.

Fast, the chase, you told me now,
Unbelievable streets if we can make it out,
And you know we've got nothing to say love,
the sky is on fire;
it doesn't matter.

Just run, run, faster now,
we've got the whole damn town tryna chase us out.
And I know we've got money saved so sugar c'mon,
let's leave town tonight.

Forget if weather's right,
Burns just as bright as inside,
But the leaves are just as broken,
Like the skin our pain was holding.

Leave it all behind,
Eating at our skin...

Hearts race faster still,
You told me don't look back,
I never will.
'cause I know we can't ever
change their minds, so why bother?
They don't matter.

Just run, run, faster now,
we've got the whole damn town tryna chase us out.
And I know we've got money saved so sugar c'mon,
let's leave town tonight.

Forget if weather's right,
Burns just as bright as inside,
But the leaves are just as broken,
Like the skin our pain was holding.

Build a house with the wheels,
Feed the dogs, farm the fields,
With the camera fortified,
It's gaining appetite.

Turn the car, let it peel,
Like the skin, you left it open,
But our leave are just as broken,
Throw away the hearts we've stolen.

Leave it all behind,
Eating at our skin, we begin.
