Run Away Lyrics

I know you left me long ago
but I've been longing since you left
to fill this empty space that you created
on this lonely bed.
And I know it's not my fault
but I'm the one that's getting hurt.
you sit upon your whorish throne
while I drown in shit I don't deserve.

You left your t-shirt in my room.
It used to smell like your perfume.
I choked up when it was burning
but I blamed it on the fumes.
And my pulse goes off the charts
when I can see you on the street
You know you ripped my life apart
but you won't get what's left of me.

So I will run away
and get out of this town
in hope I never see your face.
And I'll take back my heart
and rid my life of you
so that my life can finally start.

And I'm so done with feeling numb
that I've been pissing in the breeze.
No matter how much these girls come
they never miss their chance to leave.
And I swear you rule my mind
but I wish you never left.
And now I miss you all the time
And I just eat myself to death.

You left your t-shirt in my room.
It used to smell like your perfume.
I choked up when it was burning
but I blamed it on the fumes.
And now I'll run so far away.
Maybe I'll run until I die.
Well if my journey ends with that
at least we'll both be satisfied.

So I will run away
and get out of this town
in hope I never see your face.
And I'll take back my heart
and rid my life of you
so that my life can finally start.

I saw the beauty in your oaks.
I ate the apple from your tree.
I thought I had you for myself.
How many shared your fruit with me?
I saw the beauty in your oaks.
I ate the apple from your tree.
I thought I had you for myself.
How many shared your fruit with me?

Front Porch Step is the solo acoustic project consisting of Jake McElfresh. Hailing from Newark, Ohio, United States Front Porch Step released their debut EP in 2012, titled "Endearment." Later that year Front Porch Step made a more substantive release, titled "So help me God." It has been self-described as "raw emotion coming from someone who is not afraid to let anyone know how he feels." Content matter includes "love, heartbreak, lust and his struggles with God and everything around him." Front Porch Step released "Island of the Misfit Boy," on YouTube, in early July 2012, gaining popularity after receiving significant attention on reddit. McElfresh proceeded to record the song and released a studio version of the aforementioned track, which was released via the Front Porch Step bandcamp in early August 2012. Late July, the Front Porch Step YouTube page was hacked (shortly after Island of the Misfit Boy had reached 100 000+ views), and all the videos were deleted. McElfresh has stated that, due to many of the YouTube videos being rather old, there were no backups and could, therefore, not be uploaded.

In mid 2014, multiple stories from underage female fans surfaced claiming that he had taken advantage of them by soliciting nude photos, sending them himself, and emotionally manipulating them.
