Can't write it down
Cause if anyone finds out
They'll come with their torches
Can't say the words
Cause if anyone finds out
They'll come panting and snapping their jaws
Don't flinch, when the whip cracks
Don't flinch, when he chews on my name
Because if anyone finds out
There'll be hell and back to pay
Run to the place we agreed upon
Run cause they're catching on to me
Run cause they're gaining ground on us
And I can't keep us safe, anymore
Hey lover, I lay my head down
Hey lover, heavy wears the crown
Sometimes love isn't enough and
Sometimes I wanna give up and
Hey lover, I lay my head down
Hey lover, heavy wears the crown
Cause mother was never a name I was called
Cause mother, was never my name
Run to the place we agreed upon
Run cause they're catching on to me
Run cause they're gaining ground on us
And I can't keep us safe, anymore
Hey lover, I lay my head down
Hey lover, heavy wears the crown
Cause mother was never a name I was called
Cause mother
I run, run, run
