Daughter - Run Lyrics






While I powder my nose,
He will powder his gums.
And if I try to get close,
He is already gone,
Don't know where he's going,
Don't know where he's been.
But he is restless at night,
'Cause he has horrible dreams.

So we lay in the dark,
We've got nothing to say.
Just the beating of hearts,
Like two drums in the grey.
I don't know what we're doing,
I don't know what we've done.
But the fire is coming,
So I think we should run.

I think we should run, run, run, run...
Run, run, run, run...
Run, run, run, run...
Run, run, run

While I put on my shoes,
He will button his coat,
And we will step outside,
Checking might the coast is clear
On both sides,
'Cause we don't wanna be seen.
Oh, this is suicide...
But you can't see the ropes.

And I won't tell my mother.
It's better she don't know
And he won't tell his folks,
'Cause they're already ghosts.
And we'll just keep each other,
As safe as we can.
Until we reach the border,
Until we make our plan.

To run, run, run, run...
To run, run, run, run...
To run, run, run, run...

Will you stay with me my love
For another day?
'Cause I don't want to be alone,
When I'm in this state.
Will you stay with me my love?
'Til we're old and grey.
'Cause I don't wanna be alone.
When these bones decay...

Run, run, run, run...
Oh run, run, run, run...
Run, run, run, run...
And run, run, run, run...
Run, run, run, run...
Run, run, run, run...

[Acoustic version ending:]
While I powder my nose,
He will powder his gums,
And if I try to get close,
He is already gone,
Don't know what we're doing,
Don't know what we've done.
But the fire is coming,
So I think we should run.

    My brother died today 4 years ago. He was hurting but he never told anybody. He had everything to be happy but he wasn't. When he got home he hang himself. May his soul rest in peace. 05/11/2015 :'(

  27. J.... M....

    xoxo 💛

  28. J.... B....

    2019- peru <3

  29. O.... ....

    This song is eerily reminiscent of the horrid life I left behind. Drugs included, powdered noses and gums. I cannot stress enough how accurate this is to what we did. I'm so glad I'm away from him and what he did. BUT when I tried to die - and survived - a part of me stayed in that little bedsit. Now I'm a shell trying to be whole. Like a ghost. I've been through hell.

  30. I.... L....

    Amo tanto essa banda, a voz da Elena é viciante

  31. R.... O....

    Red dead redemption II
    Galaxy A10s

  32. l.... s....

    This is low key just a dramatic song about a one night stand not hatingggg or anything it’s true tho

  33. E.... S....

    This song reminds me a bit of Bonnie and Clyde.

  34. G.... T....

    Every one of Daughter's songs has a unique vibe/atmosphere which takes my mind to places! 🌌
    Incredible Band! 👏👏👏

  35. h.... y....

    Like, I don’t even need to listen to the song. I just press like cuz it’s Daughter singing🧡🧡🧡

  36. J.... S....

    Does me mind tricks me or the start of this song looks like a song of ludovico einaudi?

  37. E.... H....

    My friend died. On May 4th. 3 months later and she’s still dead but keeps coming back into my life.

    I miss her so much. This is the song I think about when I miss her too much. It helps me.

  38. N.... R....

    so i think we should run...

  39. P.... ....

    I miss him.

  40. J.... n....

  46. b.... f....

    this song should've played on Life is Strange

  47. L.... A....

    Im getting hotel California vibes and I’m liking it

  48. A.... A....

    2019 i think somethings never change

  49. E.... D....

    Favourite song of theirs :')

  50. N.... ....

    This band is the female version of Radiohead

  51. W.... 2....

    Those kind of songs make me feel free, like if I can be who I am inside what make me happy
    What make me sad
    What I feel inside
    Just running somewhere
    Anywhere far from my home

  52. A.... A....

    This should have been in the soundtrack for money heist

  53. M.... R....

    cery goot song thenk

  54. T.... P....

    Idk this song sounds like TWD Final Season Game's intro song. But it's really beautiful though.

  55. g.... N....

    All of their songs remind me of when I use to visit my grandma in North Carolina. There was an old barn there. Me and my brothers loved it. And behind the barn was a creek and a slaughter house. And these songs make me want to go back there and just enjoy it while it lasts

  56. F.... O....

    And just when i thought I heard it all... This is truly breathtaking ♥💔

  57. H.... G....

    I want to run...I want to run away from it all. This pain this heartache these memories that were once happy. Memories that make everyone seem they are now your enemy and trust is dead and all you want to do is seclude yourself not wanting to hurt others when you leave because you feel like no one wants you.

  58. A.... V....

    Daughter + Of Monsters and Men = mah ultimate favourites

  59. a.... ....

    “this is suicide, but you can’t see the ropes”

  60. T.... ....

    This fits Life is Strange 2 so well...

  61. Z.... F....

    This song remind me of death
    When my grandma died I was like trying to escape what I was going through and I put this song and it makes and then it becomes like a habit when I lost my ant I listened to this song again

  62. S.... S....

    But tell me, when will we rest, my love?...

  63. C.... M....

    Crying my eyes out.😢💙

  64. A.... A....

    The tune is like Hotel California's tune

  65. v.... v....

    casey & kevin

  66. L.... G....

    The Walking Dead The Final Season

  67. A.... J....

    This song has to become a part of LiS2's OST.

  68. D.... S....

    I can't run because I'm so tired to run

  69. N.... W....

    2019 ?? 😍😍

  70. n.... D....

    2019.... burada olanlar el kaldırsın...:))))))

  71. C.... ....

    honest music is very few right now, forget beyonce etc, this is best honest music now! 2019!

  72. P.... F....

    My girlfriend died in a crash when we were playing this song in the car. I didn’t even get scratched. Not even messed up, no dirt or messed up hair. I miss her so much, my lil dyke. It really should have been me. I wish it had been me so badly, I wish to be with her so badly and everything hurts.

  73. J.... Z....

    Is this about a secret love?

  74. P.... P....

  86. j.... o....

    i'm sitting in the car, alone, and it's pouring outside. i haven't heard this song in _years,_ but i just found it again and something just... clicked.

  87. B.... R....

    Kxxxmm... But this a Hotel California by Eagles

  88. J.... T....

    really beautiful. reminds me of a female shakey graves, with alt j doing the vibe.

    although sonically the sound you put out is beautiful, it stems itself in sadness, and i hope i don't have a suitable moment for this during my life time.

  89. j.... C....

    Song makes me think Of Heisenberg

  90. R.... C....

    two outlaws cowboys on the run is this music about?

  91. x.... d....

    This is the perfect colour for the song, it's sad but not dark and aesthetic at the same time

  92. C.... M....

    Sounds like mix betwen hotel california and runaway yea yea yeas

  93. s.... s....

    Intro is creepy

  94. c.... c....

    I don't know if I can love the boy the way he loves me.
