[Verse 1]
Fragments of last night
Languish in half light
So real your heart just can't deny
Got out of bed late
Can't get your head straight
Too many people rushing by
[Chorus]
You better run, baby, run
Look at the damage you've done
For you played that game hard
But you didn't play fair
And now you're playing solitaire
[Verse 2]
Bags on the table
Fearless and able
Broken by nothing and no one
When will you wake up
See through the make-up
Oh, hold fast your beauty and get gone
[Chorus]
You better run, baby, run
Look at the damage you've done
For you played that game hard
But you didn't play fair
Now you're playing solitaire
[Outro]
Watch the headlights fade
In the distant rain
Leave the life you made
Find the strength to start again
Watch the headlights fade
In the distant rain
Leave the life you made
Find the strength to start again
You better run, baby, run (Watch the headlights fade)
You better run, baby, run (In the distant rain)
Leave the life you made
Find the strength to start again
You better run, baby, run (Watch the headlights fade)
You better run, baby, run (In the distant rain)
Leave the life you made
Find the strength to start again
