Runaway Lyrics

Strung out in the back of a black car
No keys, all I got is my credit cards
And I've been here a million times
Drive fast with the Beatles in the background
Tell 'em take the 101 out of this town
I was never one to say goodbye

Every time I fall in love
I go and fuck it up right when it gets good
Don't you think it's funny?
Don't you think it's funny?
I know I did all the shitty things to you
I said I never ever would
Baby, that's so like me
Yeah, baby, that's so like me

I don't know why I always run away
I don't know why I always run away
What we had was special
I know what we had was special
I don't know why I always run away
I don't know why I always run away
What we had was special
I know what we had was special

Strung out in the back of a black car
I got a little too good at breaking hearts
I wonder if I'll ever stop

Every time I fall in love
I go and fuck it up right when it gets good
Don't you think it's funny?
Don't you think it's funny?
I know I did all the shitty things to you
I said I never ever would
But baby, that's so like me
Yeah, baby, that's so like me

I don't know why I always run away
I don't know why I always run away
What we had was special
I know what we had was special
I don't know why I always run away
I don't know why I always run away
What we had was special
I know what we had was special

What we had was special

I don't know why I always run away
I don't know why I always run away
What we had was special
I know what we had was special
I don't know why I always run away
I don't know why I always run away
What we had was special
I know what we had was special

Strung out in the back of a black car
I've got a little too good at breaking hearts
I was never one to say goodbye

What is the Meaning of Runaway?

Ever feel like you keep sabotaging your own happiness? Sasha Sloan's song dives deep into that very feeling. The lyrics paint a picture of someone who's stuck in a cycle of running away from love and good things, even when they know how special what they had was. The recurring imagery of being "strung out in the back of a black car" suggests a sense of aimlessness and regret. Despite recognizing their pattern of messing things up right when it gets good, they can't seem to stop themselves. It's a raw reflection on self-destructive tendencies and the struggle to break free from them, all wrapped up in Sloan's hauntingly beautiful voice.
