Gases flow anywhere they want to. This is one of the special properties of gases. They do NOT have a definite volume or shape. They take the shape of their container and fill the volume of that container.

Why does a runny volcano not explode?

The explosive force of an explosive eruption comes from gasses trapped in the magma. Runny magma does not hold gasses very well, and so those gasses escape before the magma erupts. The runny magma can also easily flow to the surface without getting stuck and having to be blown out, unlike thicker types of magma.
