Backseat full of silence Old car on an empty road You’re staring out the window Trying not to let it show Bruises in your memories Mine hide behind my smile We don’t know where we’re going Just need to leave for a while No map, no prayer Just cold midnight air And I whisper, “Are you scared?” You say, “Only if you are” Runaway hearts Burning in the dark We don’t have a place to go But at least we’re not alone Runaway hearts Driving with the scars If tomorrow falls apart We’ll go down with runaway hearts Gas station neon buzzing Rain dancing on the glass You’re laughing through the aching Like the world can’t hurt us back Your hand finds mine, trembling But it fits just right Home was just a memory This feels more alive No past, no names Just thunder and flames And I whisper, “Will this last?” You say, “Nothing ever stays, but stay.” Runaway hearts Burning in the dark We don’t have a place to go But at least we’re not alone Runaway hearts Driving with the scars If tomorrow falls apart We’ll go down with runaway hearts If the road ends We’ll paint a new line If the world breaks You can break next to mine If we never make it home Promise me one thing Don’t ever let go Even when it stings Runaway hearts Burning in the dark We don’t have a place to go But with you, it feels like home Runaway hearts Running from the past If the future falls apart We’ll still be two runaway hearts Streetlights fade behind us And the night pulls us far We don’t know where we’re going But I’m safe inside your car
