Lyrics

Opened my heart
Welcomed you home
Gave you endless love
A place to call your own
You say your life's so full
Drama's all gone
But that's cause you mess it up
And then you move on
You run away
Run away from me
Scared of what the world might say
And how you'll be seen
Playin' games
One move at a time
Checkmate, baby
I'm doing just fine
So, run away
Run away from me
Afraid of what the world might say
And how you'll be seen
You came in
Messed it up
And left us on read
So run away, you run away from me
So run away, you run away from me
So run away, you run away from me
So run away, you run away from me
Called yourself a lover
Said you were a friend
Only when you needed a place to mend
I was there
Through your darkest nights
But now you talk behind my back
I see the lights
You run away
Run away from me
Scared of what the world might say
And how you'll be seen
Playin' games
One move at a time
Checkmate, baby
I'm doing just fine
So run away
Run away from me
Afraid of what the world might say
And how you'll be seen
You came in
Messed it up
And left us on read
So run away, you run away from me
So run away, you run away from me
So run away, you run away from me
So run away, you run away from me
So, run away
Run away from me
I don't need your lies
Deception
Or greed
Everyone who knows you, just sees
You look for the doormats
Wherever you please
You run away
Scared of what the world might say
Playin' games
Checkmate, baby
I'm doing just fine
So, run away
Run away from me
Afraid of what the world might say
And how you'll be seen
You came in
Messed it up
And left us on read
So run away, you run away from me
So, run away
Run away from me
Now my life will be drama free
No more lies, no more deceit
Just peace and quiet, scott free
Called yourself a lover
Said you were a friend
All my life will be drama free
No more lies, no more deceit
Just peace and quiet
Scott free
