Anywhere but here
Do you wish to be alone?
With stars as mere companions
Silent critics to your songs
Anyone but me
With whom do you wish to speak?
Ready are a thousand ears
But you recognize none except your fears
You had to be wrong to learn
Why did you have to prove you could fight the world?
You had to break and fall before
You could understand how this mercy works
You had to march through fire to shine
You had to lose your voice so you could speak your mind
I don't understand, why you had to leave
Anytime but now
Would you like to change your vows?
What was love before the pain?
Was it something said in vain?
You had to run away to feel
The only time you felt at home was real
You had to miss someone before
You regretted your wrong for shutting the door
You had to force yourself to think
Loneliness in time will lose its sting
I don't understand, why you had to leave
The remedy lies now in your hands
Know tomorrow comes whether you're glad or sad
Still the sun will rise regardless of
The nights, you blame, that haunt your past
You had to run away to feel
The only time you felt at home was real
You had to miss someone before
You regretted your wrong for shutting the door
You had to force yourself to think
Loneliness in time will lose its sting
I don't understand, why you had to leave
Run away to feel
The only time you felt at home was real
You had to miss someone before
You regretted your wrong for shutting the door
You had to force yourself to think
Loneliness in time will lose its sting
I don't understand, why you had to leave
