[Chorus]
There ain’t no place I’d rather be
But I’ve gotta go
I’ve gotta run away
I’ll carry my heart down to the sea
And let the salt dissolve it

[Verse 1]
These things happen now
We stray into ruin
Even when all of the signs ahead
Say, “What are you doing?”

[Verse 2]
Staring at my shaking hands
Now that I know for real
There’s somebody else in those eyes
Someone who’s scaring me
I’m already dead to you
So put down the knife
I think you’ve made enough scars
With words of barbed wirе

[Chorus]
There ain’t no place I’d rathеr be
But I’ve gotta go
I’ve gotta run away

[Verse 3]
Don’t wait when I’m gone
I’m not coming home
Say a few words at the funeral
Cause we were close
Closer than I’ve ever known
Remember how it felt safe
How can I feel that safe?
Now that I know

[Chorus]
There ain’t no place I’d rather be
But I’ve gotta go
I’ve gotta run away
I’ll carry my heart down to the sea
And let the salt dissolve it

[Bridge]
Why do we need to heal so slow?
Maybe there’s somewhere new that we can go
I’d run for miles if you promise me there’s a better way
I’d run for miles—

[Chorus]
There ain’t no place I’d rather be
But I’ve gotta go
I’ve gotta run away
I’ll carry my heart down to the sea
And let the salt dissolve it

[Breakdown]
Let the sea wash away
Everything so I can begin to breathe
Filling my lungs
Ready to run for miles and miles and miles
Let the sea wash away
Everything so I can begin to breathe
Filling my lungs
Ready to run for miles and miles and miles
