THE STRUTS
"I Won't Run"

I hate to say but I know how it is
Before the dawn I know it's gonna get darker
And I've got nothing left of me to give
But I ain't finished yet

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
I don't care what they might say, they're wrong
I know I'm better than that
Someone told me I should stand up tall whenever I can

[Chorus:]
So I ain't turning, I ain't hiding
I'm gonna dance off the ropes when I'm fighting
If I'm hurting, broken and bleeding
Giving it every breath while I'm breathing
And I won't run, I won't run
I'm holding on
Giving it every breath while I'm breathing
And I won't run

There's a chance I'm holding in my hands
I've gotta take it if I'm gonna get better
I wasn't born with a master plan
So I just make it up

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
I don't care what they might say, they're wrong
I'm better than this
Someone told me I should stand up tall before I give in

[Chorus:]
So I ain't turning, I ain't hiding
I'm gonna dance off the ropes when I'm fighting
If I'm hurting, broken and bleeding
Giving it every breath while I'm breathing
And I won't run, I won't run
I'm holding on
Giving it every breath while I'm breathing
And I won't run

[Chorus:]
So I ain't turning, I ain't hiding
I'm gonna dance off the ropes when I'm fighting
If I'm hurting, broken and bleeding
Giving it every breath while I'm breathing
And I won't run, I won't run
I'm holding on
Giving it every breath while I'm breathing
And I won't run, I won't run
I'm holding on
Giving it every breath while I'm breathing
I won't run

[Outro:]
(And I won't run)
(And I won't run)
(And I won't run)
(And I won't run)
(And I won't run)
(And I won't run)
(And I won't run)
