I recorded a rough demo of this on a virgin mobile burner phone back in 2010, emailed it to myself and immediately forgot about it. I rerecorded it and gave it a quick mix.

lyrics

When I reach
in the dark
I am going for your heart
If I sleep
all I hope's
you're not going for my throat
going for my throat

If you're so smart explain to me
What is this
supposed to be
If I'm so wise why didn't I know
You would be
the first to go away
So go away

I can try
to stay awake
Its not worth the strength it takes
But I force
my eyes closed
and then begin to doze

If I had Known how it would be
I would have tried more
can't you see
If you are right and we are done
I should have known
That you would run away

RUNAWAYYYY
Runaway

If I had Known how it would be
I would have tried more
can't you see
If you are right and we are done
I should have known
That you would run away
