Leave this house,
grab a lunchbox as I go.
Lace up my boots
and head for the door.
run away
run away from this life
run away
Found a fish hook on my floor
but I did not bite
There's a lock on my door
and it keeps me inside
run away
run away from this life
run away
All these people talking,
what do they say?
I don't know I tell them to
go away go away go away
run away
run away from this life
run away
Teacher tell me that I'm smart
and tell me how to live.
I'm not coming back tomorow
it's the only gift I can give
There's a man in my brain
I tell him the time is near
I tell him I run away
He says man your weird
I do it anyway
run away from this life
run away
A long road lies before me
but I can deal with that
The longest road's behind me
so now I can't turn back
I'll run away
run away from this life
run away.
