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.
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
