Running Away Lyrics
Artist(Band):Hoobastank
I don't want you, to give it all up
And leave your own life, collecting dust
And I don't want you, to feel sorry for me
You never gave us, a chance to be
And I don't need you, to be by my side
To tell me, that everything's alright
I just wanted you, to tell me the truth
You know I'd do that for you
[Chorus]
So why are you running away?
Why are you running away?
Cause I did enough, to show you that I
Was willing to give, and sacrifice
And I was the one, who was lifting you up
When you thought your life had had enough
And when I get close, you turn away
There's nothing that I can do or say
So now I need you, to tell me the truth
You know I'd do that for you
[Chorus]
So why are you running away?
Why are you running away?
Is it me, is it you? (is it me, is it you)
Nothing that, I can do (nothing that, I can do)
To make you, change your mind (to make you)
Is it me, is it you? (so why do - you run - away)
Nothing that, I can do (won’t you tell me)
Is it a, waste of time? (why do - you run - away)
Is it me, is it you?
Nothing that, I can do
To make you, change your mind - no
[Chorus]
So why are you running away?
Why are you running away? (what is it, I have to say)
[Chorus]
So why are you running away? (to make you admit, you're afraid)
Why are you running away?

Review about Running Away
Random Title! | Reviewer: Allyka | 2/10/09
I have to agree with Emily, no one except the writer knows the true meaning of the song and you shouldn't be telling people that their wrong just because you think it means something different.
Though personally I think as long as a song means something to you the writer will be happy even if your interpretation is different then they meant it to be.
My opnion... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/19/08
only the writer really knows but it is a song that can mean anything not only a relationship. It is a beautiful song that inspired me to always think about the other person when it comes to certain situations. But people don't always assume it is about a girl and a boy. This song can mean anything. Even a frendship or a decision. Great song Hoobastank!
Understanding | Reviewer: rebel | 8/2/08
I had a boy who was chasing after me but I kept turning him down. This song kinda reminds me of what he must be feeling and makes me feel I need to respect him enough to tell him why I have turned him down so many times. Of course, because I did tell him why, I lost a friend.
Still, it's a great song and I really like it. It sounds good and has a good meaning to it.
Meaning | Reviewer: Kristen | 5/25/08
I think that maybe this song could be about a friendship too. If you do a lot for that person and they dont appreciate it and take you for granted you might give up. Once you think you two are getting your friendship on the right track then they push you away its kind of the same feeling. Especially when you're fighting with a friend and they never really gave you a chance to make the friendship work. Right now that fits me a little bit and I just wanted to explain my feelings. Anyways its a great song.
you dont know | Reviewer: Emily | 3/23/08
No body except the writer knows what this song is "really" about. Yes you all have your own interpretations, and meanings of it, but whats the point. Look at the song for what it is...
which is 1, not yours, so to the people who sit there and declare what it is about, saying other people are wrong, drop it. you didn't write it, there for you don't really know..
Thanks | Reviewer: Ashley | 1/23/08
This song helped through after the ending of my relationship. It spoke about lies and how the singer would be honest and needed the truth. i love when a song speaks to me and this one did. It sounds depressing but it can really help when a relationship ends.

I heard this song and immendiatly fell in love with it! I really think the song is about 2 people who are really close, but one of the two people are scared to commitment, because even know they like the person so much they are afraid that in the end it isnt going to work out so instead of staying to see what could happen they run away
Running Away | Reviewer: karen | 1/7/08
First off, this song could be about a boy or girl.
Second off, It's about two people who were really close, and one of them wanted to start a relation ship but that other was to scared they'd hurt the other, to scared to give love a shot. now they're "running away" (giving up, not talking to each other anymore, trying completely forgetting about the other person) because everytime the one would get close something would go wrong and they'd try to talk about it but the one with the problem wouldn't, so the other would push them away for trying to help. but the one just wants the best for the other person, but the other person is just sorry but sorry doesn't mean JACK! but the one never told the truth. but the other person is to scared because they don't want to hurt the other.
runawaay | Reviewer: caro | 12/7/07
it's just a girl that is scared to be loved really...doesn't matter if its becoz if her own problems or other things osmetimes it takes a person to runaway to see who cares enought to follow after
Running Away | Reviewer: Nate | 12/3/07
Um, I am thinking this song reflects the end of a relationship, or at least one that is in trouble. It sounds like the singer is confused and hurt by whoever the girl is that he is singing to. She is not committing to him and to the relationship ("You never gave us a chance to be"). He is tired of the current state of the relationship, because it is static. Every time he tries to get close to her she turns away from him, and he knows he hasn't done anything horribly wrong. The only explanation is that she no longer loves him, but she won't tell him and she won't break it off. That is why he wants her to "tell him the truth." He is not over their relationship, otherwise he would have ended it, and he hopes the issues can be remedied.
Man, I am in a similar situation right now with my gf, and it sucks.
