Runaway Girl

RUNAWAY GIRL - Written by Carroll Bryant

When the night closes in, you're a stranger to the world

Time passes by all your dreams

You're a runaway girl fading away 

You don't even know what love means

You need a man to take you by the hand

And pull you close to his heart

But you can not find him in all of your screams

You don't even know where to start

You're a runaway girl

You can't search for much longer

You're a runaway girl

In the darkest of nights your heart keeps getting stronger

But you can't keep chasing your shadow

Always going where it goes

Still you're lonely

When the new day begins you don't even know

You're still sleeping off confusion

Dancing alone with demonic things

Trapped inside of your delusions

The thoughts you believed have yet to set you free

Too caught up in your precious image 

Crying out loud for to be let out

Of the box where you hide in from scrimmage 

You're a runaway girl

You can't search for much longer

You're a runaway girl

In the darkest of nights your heart keeps getting stronger

But you can't keep chasing your shadow

Always going where it goes

Still you're lonely

You need a man to take you by the hand

And pull you close to his heart

But you can not find him in all of your screams

You don't even know where to start

You're a runaway girl

You can't search for much longer

You're a runaway girl

In the darkest of nights your heart keeps getting stronger

But you can't keep chasing your shadow

Always going where it goes

Still you're lonely
