[Verse 1]
I can't feel my fingers
I can’t feel my toes
There's blood on my necklace
And blood on my clothes
I called up the police
Their voicemail was full
I guess I'm just out here
I’m on my own
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm on my own, I'm on my own

I'm on my own, I'm on my own
I’m on my, I’m on my, I'm on my own
[Chorus]
Runnin’, I'm runnin', I'm runnin’
Runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin'
Runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin'
Runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin'
Runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin'
Runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin'
Runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin'
Runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin'

Kimi hazukashii
Te ni imashou

I'm on my own
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm on my own, I'm on my own
I'm on my, I'm on my, I'm on my own
I'm on my own, I'm on my own
I'm on my, I'm on my, I'm on my own
[Chorus]
Runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin'
Runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin'
Runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin'
Runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin'
[Outro]
Poppy is your mommy
Poppy is your mommy
