I'm going to make myself hard to find
I'm going to retreat from this town with just a worried mind
I'm going to make myself deaf to your cries
You keep making promises and I just spit out lies
I've made so many mistakes
Not least of these was each time I convinced you to stay
I've inflicted coarseness and pain
It's not your fault; I'm the one to blame
There are problems I cannot solve
You keep needing sugar; I've got cupboards full of salt
I admit that I am running away
I can no longer recognize the beauty in your face
So I'm giving up and running away
