Lyrics
Runaway
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Packed her bags, bought a ticket for the subway
Giving up on life, now she's gonna run away
Get out of here, somehow
She threw away everything, that she never had
Didn't think it'd come to this, but now she finally has..
To face the truth, somehow
To finally figure out
What they've been talking about
CHORUS:
She's the runaway
She tried to hide from her mistakes
That lonely girl
Out on her own
She'll leave today
No matter what they have to say
She'll find a way
She knows
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
She doesn't really care, if they're gonna chase her
They're gonna have to realize, she gets what she deserves
She's better off alone, she thinks
She's gonna learn to fly, despite her broken wings
She's gonna live her life, on the sad song she sings
About something more, she dreams
She's got to figure out
What she is all about
CHORUS:
She's the runaway
She tried to hide from her mistakes
That lonely girl
Out on her own
She'll leave today
No matter what they have to say
She'll find a way
She knows
She can't get out of this dim light
She never seemed to shine that bright
And this sad truth she calls her life
It's not alright, it's not alright
She doesn't care just what they have to say
She's gonna make or break her way she knows
No matter what, no matter what they say
She's home
