Producer: R8DIO

[Verse 1: Jack Avery]
Wanna free fall inside your head
Go everywhere you've been
See everything you've seen
So I can understand

[Refrain: Zach Herron]
I just need a little time
To prove to you that I'm on something different
I know you've been hurt before
But you don't have to run from me, I'm on your side

[Chorus: Corbyn Besson & All]
Run away, run away, runner
Run away, run away, run away, runner
Run away, run away, run away, runner
What you running from?
Run away, run away, runner
Run away, run away, run away, runner
Run away, run away, run away, runner
What you running from?

[Refrain: Corbyn Besson]
I just need a little time
To prove to you that I'm on something different
I know you've been hurt before
But you don't have to run from me, I'm on your side

[Verse 2: Daniel Seavey]
Free fall inside your heart
Feel every single part
Know everything you are
So I know what you want

[Refrain: Jonah Marais]
I just need a little time
To prove to you that I'm on something different
I know you've been hurt before
But you don't have to run from me, I'm on your side

[Chorus: Corbyn Besson & All]
Run away, run away, runner
Run away, run away, run away, runner
Run away, run away, run away, runner
What you running from?
Run away, run away, runner
Run away, run away, run away, runner
Run away, run away, run away, runner
What you running from?

[Refrain: Corbyn Besson]
I just need a little time
To prove to you that I'm on something different
I know you've been hurt before
But you don't have to run from me, I'm on your side

Why Don’t We

Why Don’t We is a boy band consisting of Daniel Seavey, Zach Herron, Corbyn Besson, Jonah Marais and Jack Avery. The members individually gained recognition over social media by posting covers and doing live streams. Seavey was also a contestant on season 14 of the American TV show American Idol. The group started activities on September 27, 2016, with the release of their two singles “Taking You” and “Nobody Gotta Know” and EP Only The Beginning, shortly thereafter.

The band gained a lot of recognition from their 2017 single “Something Different”. They went on to release four EPs in that year, notably gaining recognition for their collaboration with YouTuber Logan Paul, who also directed several of their music videos at this time.

Their first release in 2018, the Ed Sheeran-written “Trust Fund Baby,” ranked #2 on the American iTunes Chart, and was the band’s highest achievement to that date. They released three singles in June, July and August of that year preceding their first full length album on August 31, 2018. “Talk”, the second pre-release, peaked at #1 on the American iTunes Chart, surpassing their personal record just five months later.
