[Intro]
Oooh oooh
[Verse 1]
I'm runnin' out of teardrops
Runnin' out of heartaches
Sick and tired of your lies
And excusing what you do (What you do)
[Chorus]
Runnin' out of forgiveness
Runnin' out of doin' my best
One old day, before you count to two
I'll beat and run out on you
[Verse 2]
Runnin' out of strength to fight
Runnin' out of lonely nights
Runnin' out of cloudy days
And always feelin' blue (Feelin' blue)
[Chorus]
Runnin' out of cryin' in vain
Runnin' out of hurt and pain
And one old day, before you count to two
I'll beat and run out on you
[Bridge]
I gave you all my lovin' (Gave you my lovin')
Just to be mine (Gave you my lovin')
I tried to do what's right
And be good and kind
I'm not gonna be nobody's (Nobody's puppet)
Puppet on a string
I've got news for you
I can do all those things (I can do it, I can do it)
Baby, baby
[Verse 3]
Don't you know that I'm runnin' out of bein' a fool (Runnin' out)
Runnin' out of goin' by the rule, now (Runnin' out)
Sick and tired of being ashamed
And offended at what you do
[Chorus]
Runnin' out of words to say, now (Runnin' out)
Runnin' out of prayers to pray, now (Runnin' out)
One old day, before you count to two
I'll beat and run out on you (Runnin' out)
You, you, you, baby baby (Runnin' out)
[Outro]
I can't stand it
(Runnin' out, you got to run out)
My heart won't take it, now
(Runnin' out, you got to run out)
I can't stand it
(Runnin' out, you got to run out)
No, no, I can't take it, now
(Runnin' out, you got to run out)
Runnin' out, runnin' out
(Runnin' out, you got to run out)
Runnin' out, baby
(Runnin' out, you got to run out)
I can't stand it
(Runnin' out, you got to run out)
