Young and strong,
The voice of my father said
Don't give up
Don't be forgotten
It's hell on Earth
I just wanna run away

You told me dreams
Don't grow from here
Stay alone, count your fears
Somewhere down the line
I might figure it out

Singing all my songs
To bedroom mirrors
Deep inside my heart,
I'm still here

We're always running away!
And we don't even stop to think about it
The world's in our hands, yeah
They don't need to understand!
We do it our own way!
No matter what they try to say about it
We've got our own plans, yeah
They don't need to understand!

They don't need to understand

What made me tough
Almost killed me
At least that's how
I remember the story
Over the years
I've forgotten how it was

But I survived and
I won't walk down
The same old road that
They all follow
It only leads to a life
Not meant for me

Singing all my songs
To bedroom mirrors
Deep inside my heart, I'm here

We're always running away!
And we don't even stop to think about it
The world's in our hands, yeah
They don't need to understand!
We do it our own way!
No matter what they try to say about it
We've got our own plans, yeah
They don't need to understand!

Streets in my hometown
Seem strange now
They feel like a distant memory

I'm always fighting 'cause I know you're trying
But you can never take this dream from me.

We're always running away!
And we don't even stop to think about it
The world's in our hands, yeah
They don't need to understand!

We do it our own way!
No matter what they try to say about it
We've got our own plans, yeah
They don't need to understand!

They don't need to understand!

They don't need to understand
