เนื้อเพลง 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 (I tried to be your brother)
You could turn and stay (you cried and ran for cover)
But you run away (I made a mess who doesn't)
From me (I did my best but it wasn't enough)

It's not something to cry about
It's not something to lie about

You run away (I tried to be your brother)
You could turn and stay (you cried and ran for cover)
But you run away (I made a mess who doesn't)
From me (I did my best but it wasn't enough)
