[Instrumental Intro] [Short atmospheric synths, filtered beat, subtle bass pulse, gradual build] [Verse 1] I'm the kind who breaks the rules Just to see where they lead If everybody goes one way You can bet I'll disagree Trouble knows me by my name I don't mind a little flame I used to call it freedom Running from anything that felt the same [Pre-Chorus] Every time you got too close I found another door Every time you gave me love I gave you something less I kept saying, "You're not the one" While my heart said something else I was so damn good at leaving Till you made me wanna stay [Chorus] I ran, I ran, I ran from love Like I could never fall I built my walls up to the sky You broke through every one I said, "Don't get too close to me" You said, "I'm not going anywhere" I spent my whole life chasing freedom Now I found you standing there In the end, it was you Yeah, somehow it was you After everything I tried to lose In the end, it was you [Verse 2] All I wanted was the night Turn the speakers up and disappear No tomorrow, no regrets No one getting anywhere near You kept showing up again With that look I couldn't read I kept telling you, "Not tonight" But you kept getting underneath [Pre-Chorus] Every time you got too close I found another excuse I thought keeping you away Was the safest thing to do But somewhere in the chaos Something changed inside The one thing I was running from Was the thing I couldn't hide [Chorus] I ran, I ran, I ran from love Like I could never fall I built my walls up to the sky You broke through every one I said, "Don't get too close to me" You said, "I'm not going anywhere" I spent my whole life chasing freedom Now I found you standing there In the end, it was you Yeah, somehow it was you After everything I tried to lose In the end, it was you [Bridge] No, I never saw it coming No, I never made a plan You were never on my list But you became my favorite part I was looking for a way out You were giving me a reason Funny how the heart can find you When you're running from the feeling [Build] I ran... You stayed I pushed... You stayed I disappeared... You waited And now I'm here [Final Chorus] I ran, I ran, I ran from love But love was running too Every road I took to get away Just somehow led to you I said, "Don't get too close to me" Now I don't want you anywhere but here I spent my whole life chasing freedom Now I'm not afraid to stay In the end, it was you Yeah, somehow it was you After every road I tried to choose In the end, it was you [Outro] I don't know how you did it But you did In the end... It was you
