Don't Run Away, Emile
Mackenzie Scott
Empty talk and angry lies
Had made a home behind my eyes
They told me they were here to stay
And I believed them till the day
I saw you smile
Your kindest eyes were laughing
And for the first time
This place felt like home
Don’t run away, Emilie
Please don’t try and get out now
Dream of angels, Emilie
I need you ‘cause you see me somehow
I don’t feel the need today
For my usual masquerade
I threw away the pedestal
I’d rather have what’s real
And when I saw you smile
Your kindest eyes were laughing
And for the first time
This place felt like home
Don’t run away, Emilie
Please don’t try and get out now
Dream of angels, Emilie
I need you ‘cause you see me
I wanna tell you everything
I wanna tell you everything
I’ll be the truest one you know
If you’ll stay awhile
