[English]

The story's the same, never changed

We've been here before

Yeah, we tried to be friends

But it ends up being much more

And then we get insecure, build up walls

Then we play, pretend we don't care

No, it doesn't feel right when we fight

It gets us nowhere

But we're too scared

So we run and we run and we run

Further away from love

Look at what we've become

Yeah, we run and we run and we run

Losing the air in our lungs

What do we do about us?

We don't wanna fall out of love again (love again)

Too afraid of another chance

We run and we run and we run

Further away from love

What do we do about us?

Do about us

What do we do about us?

Do about us

...

What do we do about us?

Oh, mile after mile

Getting tired of feeling this way

Oh-ah, is it worth all the while?

Can we find something to say? (Something to say)

Like, baby, I can reassure, break your walls

We can just admit that we care?

'Cause it doesn't feel right when we fight

It gets us nowhere

But we're too scared

So we run and we run and we run

Further away from love

Look at what we've become

Yeah, we run and we run and we run

Losing the air in our lungs

What do we do about us?

We don't wanna fall out of love again, love again

Too afraid of another chance

We run and run and we run

Further away from love

What do we do about us?

Do about us

What do we do about us?

Do about us

What do we do about us?

What do we do?

What do we do, do about us?

What do we do about us?

Do about us

What do we do about us?

Do about us
