| I lay sideways in your back seat
|
| While the traffic lights silently judged me
|
| And you kept giving me attitude
|
| If you know me now, then you knew me then
|
| I haven’t made any new friends
|
| I’m still the same lucky boy, who got away
|
| I ran away
|
| I ran away
|
| It was too dangerous to stay
|
| I couldn’t keep you in one piece for more than a moment.
|
| I ran away
|
| I ran away
|
| I was too afraid to stay
|
| You couldn’t keep me happy for more than a moment
|
| And the sound started cutting out
|
| And I could hear the strange thoughts you were thinking
|
| So I stopped accepting that excuse
|
| If you don’t want me now then you never did
|
| You can curse my name but I’ll still live
|
| So just walk away
|
| I ran away
|
| I ran away
|
| It was too dangerous to stay
|
| I couldn’t keep you in one piece for more than a moment.
|
| I ran away
|
| I ran away
|
| I was too afraid to stay
|
| You couldn’t keep me happy for more than a moment
|
| I’ll see you around in the underground
|
| The caverns of my nightmares
|
| My dreams came pushing you away (away)
|
| Feet on the ground doesn’t mean a thing if you want to be moving
|
| I’m watching you waste away in place
|
| I ran away
|
| I ran away
|
| It was too dangerous to stay
|
| I couldn’t keep you in one piece for more than a moment.
|
| I ran away
|
| I ran away
|
| I was too afraid to stay
|
| You couldn’t keep me happy for more than a moment
|
| (I ran away; I ran away)
|
| (I ran away; I ran away) |
