Name: Run
Duration: P00H03M41S
Description: As you can tell from how the song opens, this is about the earthquakes that hit Christchurch a couple years back. But the meaning of the song goes beyond that. All of us have experiences from which we want to run and hide. Hopefully in those moments we'll be able to hear that voice telling us that it'll be over soon.

lyrics

Verse 1:
Close your eyes till it's over
Close your eyes till its gone
Close your eyes till you can breathe again
Close your eyes when trouble comes

Pre-Chorus:
When your world is shaken and nothing is for sure
Feel your life is breaking and no one has the cure

Chorus:
You wanna run
You wanna run oooh oh yea yea
Run
You wanna run

Verse 2:
Think of me till its over
Think of me till its gone
Think of me till you can breathe again
Think of me when trouble comes
