Seventeen years by her side Broke the same bed Wore the same clothes and we said We're sisters with nothing between If one of us falls The other will soon be following Both of you fell the same day You don't know why One of you never woke up And you laid by her down on the floor Desperate to hear her footsteps again But this house is on fire We need to go Oh, you don't have to go it alone, go it alone Run for your life my love, Run and don't give up With all that you are, All that you want I will be close behind Run for your life She had a fire inside And that terrified you You swore you'd never lose your control Baby let yourself go It's part of your height And I know the hunger inside of you is strong You can only hold back the river so long Oh, you don't have to go it alone Oh, you don't have to go it alone, go it alone Run for your life my love, Run and you don't give up With, all that you are And all that you want Run for your life right now And if you don't know how Come back a few Take all that's true And leave all that's broke behind Run for your life Oh, you don't have to go it alone Go it alone, go it alone, Run for your life my love Run and you don't give up All that you are All that you want Run for your life right now And if you don't know how Go back a a few Take all that's true And leave all that's burnt behind Just run for your life Run for your life
