Terri Clark - A Million Ways To Run lyrics

Your rating:
In the basement of the church
I took the last chair in the room
Embarrassed and ashamed
But that all began to change
When she stood up and spoke her truth

She said, "I came here years ago, when I lost my sanity
I hit an all time-low, but then I found serenity
I took shelter hiding from the pain
In any place to make it go away"

In the arms of a stranger
Keeping company with danger
Or staring down the barrel of a gun
At the bottom of a bottle
Getting numb with every swallow
It's easy, when it's what you've always done
With a million ways to run

I was the first one out the door
But her words echoed in my head
I took the long way home
But no longer felt alone
'Cause I'd lived everything she said
I thought about lost moments of my past
And then I knew there was no going back

To the arms of a stranger
Keeping company with danger
Or staring down the barrel of a gun
The bottom of a bottle
Getting numb with every swallow
'Cause it's easy, when it's what you've always done
With a million ways to run

There's a freedom I have found
In staying on the ground
Long enough to chase those demons down
And I thank God I know I'm not the only one
With a million ways to run
